Which quiz layout for tomorrow?

The quiz maker prints four layouts: three boxes, fill the blank, short answer and exit ticket. For each plan below, pick the one you'd print.

Question 1 of 6

Three minutes before the bell. You want to know who got today's idea before you plan tomorrow.

The best answer to every question, and why

Three minutes before the bell. You want to know who got today's idea before you plan tomorrow. Exit ticket. That's the exit ticket's job: three questions on a quarter sheet, four to a page with cut lines. Sort the slips into piles and tomorrow's groups are made.
A sight word check with kindergartners who can't write the words yet. Three boxes (multiple choice). Run it as a listening quiz: you read each word from the key, children circle the one they hear among three.
Vocabulary review. You want students to bring each word back from memory, not just recognize it. Fill the blank. Producing the word is recall, and recall formats gave bigger benefits than picking from a list in the research the Library's retrieval practice card cites.
Twenty-eight students, a stack to mark tonight, and you want an answer sheet you can check against the key in seconds. Three boxes (multiple choice). Only the three-box layout prints with a bubble sheet, so marking is matching a column of letters to the key.
Sixth graders read a passage, and you want to know whether they can explain why the character changed her mind. Short answer. "Why" questions need room for a sentence or two. Short answer gives the lines.
Neighbors keep glancing at each other's papers during quizzes. Three boxes (multiple choice). Any layout works here if you tick Versions A and B: the same questions in two orders. With three boxes, the right letter moves too, so a glance gives nothing away.
