Exit Tickets: teachers can give these to students at the end of the lesson to see what they understand. Based on the students responses the teacher can change the rest of the lesson.
Peer Assessments: Have students follow a rubric to help grade another students work and then go over it with the student. This way they both see mistakes and can help each other with the assignment.

Performance/Presentation: have them act out a scene or present what they are going over. Make it fun and interesting for the students.
