What would be the best way to Halachically mark attendance of Talmidim on Shabbos?

 

Would it be permissable to have a folder with a different tab for each Talmid, and when he comes late to put a piece of paper that says “5 minutes” etc. into his tab in the folder?

If not, are there any practical ways to mark?

 

Answer:

Marking the attendance of your students, through placing printed papers with numbers in their folder, is permitted.
