If you're making or have made the jump to the other place you can find me with the same username as here. I'm sure I'll cross post for a while but my timeline here is dwindling. If you're someone that I DM or talk to IRL you can also find me on Instagram @mrsmathematica

This is something I've been raising for the last few years soo it's good to see it being highlighted here. Too often it's become performative, focusing on the doing and not why this, why now. It can be hard to plan it well and types of knowledge will vary in different subjects.
Not everything is worth retrieving. Retrieval practice is powerful, but only when it targets the right knowledge. 🧵

Needed a new project so I’ve decided to make worksheets and accompanying videos to review each Unit of the GCSE Maths course. Unit 1 Higher (Number) just went LIVE on YouTube. I actually think these would be really powerful as a cover lesson. Bit.ly/gcsemathsH1Vid
