What is an exit ticket?
An exit ticket (also called an exit slip or exit card) is a short task students complete in the last few minutes of a lesson and hand in on the way out. It usually asks one to three quick questions about what was just taught: something they learned, a question they still have, or one problem to solve.
Teachers use exit tickets as formative assessment. The answers show who understood the lesson and what to reteach tomorrow, without a grade, and they give the lesson a clear ending that gets every student responding, not only the ones who raise a hand.
Three exit ticket prompts to try
- Write one thing you learned today and one question you still have.
- Rate how well you understand today's lesson: green, yellow, or red. What would move you up one color?
- Solve one problem like the ones from today, then circle the step you found hardest.

How the exit ticket generator works
You choose a subject and a ticket style, and the generator fills the tickets with short, classroom-safe prompts written for this site. Picking a subject like reading or math swaps in focused prompts, while structured styles like 3-2-1 and traffic light keep their familiar shape.
You can edit every prompt by switching to custom prompts and typing one per line; the tool trims spaces and caps the length so the card always prints cleanly. The layout decides how many identical tickets appear on the page: one large ticket, two stacked, or four in a grid. Writing prompts get ruled lines and checks like the traffic light get tidy checkboxes.
There is no AI and no internet call. Everything is built and laid out in your browser, so you can print or save as many tickets as you like, instantly and for free. Your prompts and settings are never uploaded or stored.
Private by design
- No account and no sign-up. Just open it and start.
- Everything runs on your device, which keeps the title, settings, and any prompts you type, along with the exit tickets you create private.
- Nothing you create is uploaded. No values, names, scores, or generated content are sent to our servers. If you're signed in, My Classeem's Recent Activity notes which tools you used — never what you did in them.
- We use Google Analytics for anonymous, aggregate measurement: page views and a few usage events, such as a worksheet being printed or a game round starting or finishing (with the mode played). It never receives what you enter — no answers, scores, names, or generated content.
