Example of Reviewer Feedback: Strengthening Instructional Support

Take a moment to review the sample floral design exit ticket question, then read the reviewer feedback submission.

Sample Floral Design Exit Ticket

At the end of a Floral Design unit on cost-effective designs, students complete an exit ticket. The question asks students to list spring flowers local to their area.

Reviewer Feedback Submission

The question encourages students to think about local spring flowers that could be used in arrangements. However, it would be helpful for teachers to have sample examples by region. A chart that lists regions of Texas and common seasonal flowers would support instruction. This could be used as an anchor chart to help students build knowledge throughout the year.

Writing Best Practices: Include the most relevant information in your description.

This example shows reviewer feedback that strengthens instructional support. The task itself is strong; it asks students to identify local spring flowers, which is a relevant, hands-on activity. However, the materials don't provide examples across different regions of Texas, which may make it harder for teachers to guide students depending on their location. The reviewer’s feedback is specific and practical: adding an anchor chart with regions of Texas and their seasonal flowers would give teachers a clear reference to support student thinking and extend learning over time. Notice how the reviewer's feedback stays focused on improving instruction rather than critiquing the task itself.
