What is this?
The first and last five minutes of a lesson are the two you never have time to plan, and the two that decide whether the middle worked. This pairs a bell ringer and a keyed exit ticket for every standard in the AP Cybersecurity course — 158 of each, 316 items in total, in teaching order.
The bell ringer opens on a concrete situation and asks two or three questions before you have taught the idea. The exit ticket closes the lesson with a short scenario that asks students to apply what you just taught, rather than recite it back.
Two of each per standard means one opens the idea cold and the second reviews it afterwards — or you run one set this year and the other next. Every item has its own answer key, and every exit ticket also arrives as a self-grading Google Form™.
Buying the pair costs less than the two sets separately, which is the reason it exists.

See the actual pages
One page from each half, exactly as they print.
A situation, then two questions
Each page opens on something recognizable and asks students to commit to an answer before the lesson starts. The topic, learning objective and skill are labeled at the top.
- ✓ Topic, LO and skill tagged at the top
- ✓ Two or three focused prompts
- ✓ Sized for three to five minutes
The same topic, checked
The matching ticket closes the period with a short scenario that asks students to apply the idea. Every one is keyed, and every one is also a self-grading Google Form.
- ✓ Scenario-based, not recall
- ✓ Keyed, with the key right after it
- ✓ Also a self-grading Form

How do I get the files after I buy?
Instant download right after checkout: both all-in-one PDFs, both 159-slide editable decks, every individual file, the Google Forms™ copy links, and a Start Here guide for each set.
Is this cheaper than buying the two separately?
Yes — the pair is priced below the two singles together, which is the reason it exists.
How do the Google Forms™ work?
Each link opens a copy prompt. Click it and an editable copy lands in your own Drive — you are not sharing an original. The multiple choice self-grades; written responses collect in your response sheet. The Forms cover the exit tickets.
What is NOT in this?
This is the warm-up and closer set only. It does not include the lesson slide decks, guided notes, original scenarios, collaboration activities, unit tests or practice exams — those ship with the full AP Cybersecurity course.
Can I edit them?
Yes. Both decks are native editable text rather than images, so you can change any wording, recolor to match your room, or lift a single slide into your own daily deck.
Do I need the full course to use it?
No. Both sets stand on their own and work with whatever materials you already teach from. They are drawn from the full AP Cybersecurity curriculum, so they line up with it exactly if you do have it.
