Frequently Asked Questions

What is a bell-ringer?▾
A bell-ringer (also called a do-now or warm-up) is a short, self-directed task students start the moment they sit down — while you take attendance and settle the room. It reviews or previews learning and takes about 5 minutes.
What's the difference between a bell-ringer and an exit ticket?▾
A bell-ringer opens class to activate or review knowledge; an exit ticket closes class to check whether students hit the objective. Many teachers use both daily.
Can I make one every day for the same class?▾
Yes — that's the point. Pick your grade and subject and generate a fresh warm-up each morning. Leave the topic blank for an automatic spiral review of recent material.
