Which should I have them write?

Hi everyone! This semester I’m an SI for a general chemistry class. For those that haven’t heard of it, SI stands for supplemental instructor. Basically, I go to the class, take notes and act as a model student, then hold 1 hr review sessions twice a week for the students.

Because chemistry is such an ass kicking subject, I want to keep the energy around these sessions positive and confident. I also want the students to get involved in the sessions so that I don’t just regurgitate what they heard in lecture, and so that the information will actually stick. So, each session I want to have a sort of poll/survey on the board to help guide the lesson.

I want the students to know that I care about them as individuals which is where the colleges option comes from (I also make myself available through remind app and email), but I also want them to remember that I am there to help them succeed and do better in the course which is where the grades options come from.

So for the first session, which should I have up on the board. Examples below. And I would have students that come in put a tally next to their answer.
