Looking for a fast and effective way to assess your students' understanding of fact families and inverse operations? Our Fact Family Exit Tickets are a simple yet powerful tool for capturing student thinking at the end of a lesson. Whether you’re focusing on addition and subtraction or multiplication and division, this editable resource makes it easy to check for understanding, guide instruction, and tailor future learning.

Each template allows you to customise the numbers in the fact families, making differentiation quick and seamless. Add more numbers for support students or remove some for your high flyers to create the ideal level of challenge. With both addition/subtraction and multiplication/division versions included, this resource can be used across multiple year levels and maths strands.

Designed for ease of use, each page prints six exit tickets that are ready to go. Simply print, cut, and distribute! Use them at the end of a maths lesson, as a pre-assessment tool to gauge prior knowledge, or as a quick check-in during guided groups. Editable, printable, and adaptable - these exit tickets will quickly become a go-to resource in your maths assessment toolkit.
