Formative

Example 2: An exit ticket. Students will fill out a quick 2-3 question exit ticket when they leave the classroom for a transition.

Diagnostic

Example 1: A prequiz. A quiz given to students who haven't been taught the material yet to see what they may or may not know prior to the unit or lesson.
Example 2: KWL chart. Students write what they know about the topic if any as well as what they want to know. This shows if the students hold any prior knowledge to the topic or unit.
