How Does Fluency Practice Work?
Using the theory of spaced repetition, students more frequently practice the facts they are most likely to forget. When students correctly answer a fact, they will not see that same fact again for 1–2 days to a few weeks, depending upon how many times they have already correctly answered that fact. If students answer a fact incorrectly, they will see that fact again the next time they practice. Learn more in the section below on Spaced Repetition
