A Spectrum structure as a formative check fits directly into the flow of instruction, making it easy to see patterns and outliers in student thinking. Used as a repeatable moment inside any lesson, Superstructures as formative assessment engages students in reasoning with and applying new or challenging concepts, while giving teachers insight into what is understood and what may need a reteach. Use this structure in your classroom!

A Connect structure as an exit ticket gives teachers a read on how students are making sense of the day’s lesson in focused, easy-to-scan responses. More than collecting isolated answers on slips of paper, Superstructures ask students to extend their thinking beyond recall and show how they apply the concept, turning the end of a lesson into a decision point that helps teachers plan for tomorrow.
