How To Use: 1. Three

This document provides guidance on using a "Three-Two-One" strategy to help students summarize and reflect on what they learned from a lesson. It instructs teachers to have students record three things they learned, two things they found interesting and want to learn more about, and one remaining question. Reviewing students' responses helps the teacher evaluate the lesson and tailor future instruction. Variations include having students compare and contrast topics or concepts using this format while reading or as an exit ticket.

How to Use

1. Three
After the lesson, have each student record three things he or she learned from the lesson.
2. Two
Next, have students record two things that they found interesting and that theyd like to
learn more about.
3. One
Then, have students record one question they still have about the material.
4. Review
Finally, the most important step is to review the students responses. You can use this
information to help develop future lessons and determine if some of the material needs to
be taught again.
*For Primary Grades PK-1, this strategy should be used in whole-group rather than as an
independent task, with the teacher charting ideas. Of course, since many children will want
to participate, there might be more than 3-2-1 ideas/questions in each section.
When to Use
Use Three-Two-One at any time during a lesson to encourage students to think about their
learning:

As a Check for Understanding during any portion of the lesson


During class discussions as a way for students to record their thoughts
As a closing activity so that students can review what was learned in the lesson
As an exit ticket at the end of the class period

Variations
Compare and Contrast 3-2-1
As a way to compare and contrast, have students record three similarities between two
items, two differences, and one question they still have about them.
Reading 3-2-1
When reading, have students record three of the most important ideas from the text, two
supporting details for each of the ideas, and one question they have about each of the
ideas.
Pyramid 3-2-1
Have the students create a triangle and divide it into three sections horizontally. In the
bottom section, the students record three things they learned for the day. In the middle
section, the students record two questions they have. In the top section, the students
describe how the information learned is applicable to their everyday lives.
Academic Vocabulary 3-2-1
To increase comprehension and use of academic language, ask students to explore a
concept through 3-2-1. First, have them speak with a partner. Provide the structure for 3
minutes of conversation using targeted academic language. Then, ask students to write 2
sentences using the language. Finally, have students read 1 paragraph which contains the
targeted vocabulary.
