The smallest useful check: one recall, one application, one self-report.

Template

Exit ticket for a Class {{CLASS}} {{SUBJECT}} lesson on {{OUTCOME}}: one recall item, one one-step application item, one self-report line ('What is still unclear?'). Fits a quarter page; simple language; no answer key needed — I read these, not mark them.
