Daily Review
Overview
Daily review strengthens previous learning and can lead to fluent recall. Reviewing previously learned content on a regular basis over time strengthens neural connections that are necessary for developing expertise.
Example: Use This Strategy in the Classroom
Watch how this teacher walks a class through their DMR (Daily Math Review).This procedure incorporates independent practice, student talk, and whole class discussion.

Factors Supported by this Strategy
More Repetition Strategies
Continual use of foundational skills with different problems reinforces a conceptual understanding of math skills.
10 minutes in each math session devoted to building fluent retrieval of basic math facts sets the foundation for learning new concepts.
Spending time with new content helps move concepts and ideas into Long-term Memory.
Practicing until achieving several error-free attempts is critical for retention.
Having students verbally repeat information such as instructions ensures they have heard and supports remembering.
