Matt Bromley Tweaks by Jacqui https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7 What tweaks have you made to your teaching as a result of the Matt Bromley Session on 14/01? en-us 2019-01-29 10:16:04 UTC 2025-10-25 09:40:29 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/icons/Lightdecrease.png Miss John https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325308833 I have been slowing down learning in my classes and challenging students' thinking more.

2. Tried to think of a schema for area of a circle-involved the kids in creating their own
3. Spent more time on explanations to help the transfer of key ideas from short to long term memory

E.g. planning in opportunities to develop acrostics etc to remember points. https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325398231 RD ]]> 2019-01-29 14:32:27 UTC https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325398231 I have worked on regular opportunities for regular self-quizzing in memorising quotes and increasing my use of mind maps/Venn diagrams to support revision. https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325454090 2019-01-29 15:58:13 UTC https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325454090 JM https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325833045 Whilst collaboratively working as a whole class to create a model paragraph for analysis, I added cognitive strain by slowing the learning down. After every few lines pupils would have to swap pens and annotate the exemplar, identifying the skills and strategies used to track the process employed. This meant we were able to embed meta cognitive strategies through discussion. Once we completed this, we then moved on to developing a schema whereby students had to consolidate their notes and learning to a set success criteria, using skills of evaluation of ensure they could explain why certain aspects were more important than others. See attached image for an example in student book.]]> 2019-01-30 14:08:19 UTC https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/325833045 LM https://padlet.com/Jburrows/3uy0umpycim7/wish/326247267 Frequent sessions in lessons to map synoptic elements reinforcing learning via review and interleaved practice.
