Why Students Forget:
- make memories memorable
- use CTG for retrieval grids
- quiz for "practice testing"

# data[].attributes.body
Multiple choice starter questions are great for us because the students can look over the answers to start and bring back information that might not have come back from just asking the question.

Rote memorization doesn't work as well as you might think;
Richards & Frankland think forgetting is purposeful, discarding information is built in, getting rid of information that doesn't promote survival

Without reinforcement, we forget 75% of the material in 6 days, so it is important to strengthen our synapsesby making connections and repeatedly accessing the stored information.  5 Methods: 1.  Peer-to-peer discussion
2. Spacing
3.Practice Test
4.Interleaving
5.  Combining Tex

10 ways to embed retrieval practice into your lessons

The article starts with low stake assessment which summarizes the rest of the list. Do activities that are quick and easy for students to demonstrate what they know. This can be in the form of class discussions, student led quizzing, or creating knowledge organizers. It’s also a recurring theme to have students use their knowledge of previous units.

Video: Retrieval Practice: How and Why_Video
My take away is that that is much more success to do retrieval practice by testing yourself about the topic. There was a study that people that study more forget about what they studied in a week or more than those who took a test everytime.

# data[].attributes.body
Information is forgotten: 56% in an hour, 66% after a day, 75% after 6 days if the information is not reinforced or connections are not made to prior knowledge. When neurons are frequently fired, synaptic connections are strengthened. Repeatedly accessing a stored memory encodes it more deeply. A memory becomes stronger when more connections neurons make with other neurons. When teachers something new, a new synaptic connection is made. To help them retain that learning, as many connections as possible need to be made (typically to other concepts), and it needs to be accessed repeatedly over time. Some methods that can be used are peer-to-peer explanations, the spacing effect, frequent practice tests, interleave concepts, and combine text with images.

Jumpstart the School Year.
Takeaways - It was good to compare what their thoughts were from the beginning of the year to their thoughts at the end of the year. It's helpful to identify gaps right off the bat or misconceptions.

How and Why Retrieval Practice work?
1. Single most used learning strategy
2. Not repetition or rehearsal
3. Test long term memory
4. Check answers first and set time in the future to repratice
5. Use flashcards
6. Free Recall
7. Retrieval Practice makes the connections stronger.

-The knowledge rally is a good idea for collaboration and allows for students to brain dump together.
-Creating flashcards helps them recall and then gives them a way to repeat and study later.

It's low risk because there is no grade for it. It allows for reflection of what students know. It encourages students to communicate with each other. It allows you to set expectations and practice those expectations.

Jump start the school year:
Takeaways:
We start the retrieval practice the moment the students walk in the classroom. Each student will go into classkick and fill out the form with questions such as ..... what is geometry? We will review Algebra contents such as-solving equations, what is slope equations (point-slope form) and y-intercept? Then think pair and share.
No grading for this activity

1) Answer questions from memory
2) Flash cards - answer out loud before flipping
3) Free recall - write down everything you know about a subject
*Practicing retrieval should be hard
**the more you tread the "path", the more clear it becomes

The brain forgets things that don't correlate with survival. Repeatedly accessing memories helps encodes information.

Begin with pre-req's to gauge where the students are when they come in the door and to see expectations and preconceptions.

Retrieval is good for everyone. Retrieval practice increases student fluency and confidence.

Retrieval Practice Works
-Rereading is good for short term, but long term needs retrieval practice to help process the information
-No risk so kids want to participate more
-Students can monitor their learning by determining if they know the material with the retrieval practice

Takeaway - You have to forget the information to remember

Highlights - With flashcards, you need to say the answer outloud or write it down before flipping it over.

Cypress Lakes Algebra II
Takeaway - Students come to Algebra II via different paths. Show an equation and have students do a brain dump, then think pair share and think pair square. This method would get the students thinking and talking to one another.

I like deep questioning since we build on so many concepts the students learned in geometry and alg 2

Takeaways - showing this video clip to kids to teach them how to study for math, kids will know what to expect when they start studying, incorporate into what we are doing.

Highlights - the more practice retrieving info means it will be retained in long term memory, we have to forget a little to remember long term
