Spiralled Grade 10

I used this schedule to teach a student and he responded very well to this strategy.

I staggered the Retention Checks to several days or weeks after the concept was learned in order to leverage assessment as learning - timing the retention check to bring the concepts back into the students memory to consolidate there.

My student did well on this. I felt more confident that the student had learned rather than simply quickly repeating what he had just done, and then forgetting.

I think it helped tremendously that I was able to work one-to-one with him to keep him on track and point out connections between the mathematics in the different strands.

I found I noticed more connections myself between the different strand concepts.
