Classroom Connection: Ready to Make It Stick?

I like the idea of sticky spin quizzes for my world history classes! 

I would like to try the sticky spin quizzes in my world history class! 

This session was perfectly timed as my Psychology class begins a unit on memory on Monday! I loved seeing mention of so many concepts they will be learning.

I plan to do some Catch Phrase next week. It's a low prep actiivity that gets every student engaged while employing the testing effect.

So, as I was listening to the presentation, I was thinking the material sounded so familiar. 

The AP Psych teachers created this presentation, and they hope to have teachers in the younger grades utilize them - they had their students run some study workshops in the middle school last week.

Study Like a Champ-Make It Stick

I really liked the idea of the sticky spin quizzes as well.  I thought it would help the students make connections in world history. 

I really liked the idea of sticky quizzes and I was also reminded of hexagonal thinking.  During the session I started creating an activity to help kids see the connections in my current unit and what they have already learned by using hexagonal thinking. 

I like to use a hexagon review as my retrieval practice. (students quizzing).  The first time we use the review, it is a simple matching of terms. As we continue through the unit, I have students start to write out all of the connections they are making. This was such a great webinar!

I have no idea what's happening here, but I'm intrigued. Was the PD recorded?

I love the Hexagonal Reviews as well!  I think it's a fantastic way to get students engaged in connecting terms in multiple ways, and no group's hexagonal review is ever the same as another group's. 

Will Nash yes it was! We're polishing the video and then posting it on our PD blog. It should be up in the next few days: Professional Development for Social Studies Teachers | OER Project
