Class Evaluation

(TESOL Worksheets--Class Evaluation) 
[End of the term class evaluation sheets.  These classroom worksheets have been evolving a lot.  Initially I just asked the students to write what they liked or didn't like about the class, but I found that much of the comments would be focused on how they didn't like the textbook, they didn't like the fact that the air conditioners didn't work properly, they didn't like the lack of parking at the school, and they didn't like the fact that the classrooms were always dirty--in other words, most of the complaints were focused on the school or the curriculum, things that I had no control over.  So in order to fine tune the feedback a little bit, I gave them 3 questions at the top to write about the class in general, so that they could get all their complaints about the classroom and the air conditioner out of their system before they got to questions focusing on the teacher.
I consistently got overwhelmingly positive feedback from all my students, which I was pleased with, of course, but over time I realized that this was probably less because I was a super teacher, and more because the students were too polite to bluntly write in their dislikes.  Even under the cloak of anonymity, the students would still feel bound by basic rules of politeness, and wouldn't bluntly write in their complaints.
I began to notice that many of my colleagues were using more fine-tuned evaluation sheets--what kind of activities did you enjoy in this class, what kind of activities did you not enjoy, et cetera.  I experimented with creating one of these sheets for my young learner classes, which is the second evaluation sheet below.  The first version of the evaluation sheet is on Google drive here (drive, docs, pub), the second version here (drive, docs, pub).  (The Young Learner one contains some information unique to that specific class--the titles of the graded readers used, but this can be easily edited.)
The last sheet (drive, docs, pub) is used for a group of students which I had for two consecutive terms, and was used at the start of the second term to see if they wanted to change anything. ]
