Lesson Plan 5:

Assessment

Observe student statements during the game.

Review student input and responses during the discussion after completion of the activity.

Have each student complete an exit card (see samples provided). Exit cards are a way to quickly assess what the students have come to understand and know, and are a form of debriefing. They can also be a springboard into a new lesson or discussion. (If you prefer, have the students complete more than one exit card.) Students can write their names on the back of the exit cards.

Ask students how one or all of the 3 ranchers in Amazing Grazing manage to maintain all resources on their ranch.
