Strategy 3: Admit Slip

The admit slip would be a simple one paragraph writing assignment that students would have to turn in each day.  The students would be assigned readings outside of class from various professional literature and they would have to illustrate their reading comprehension through these admit slips.  The prompts would be very simple like, "What is your opinion of the music choices for the marching band show in 'American Band?'  Do you think our High School Band could do a show like that?"  The students would have written their slip while at home and would use this to show that they understood the reading assignment.
