Slide Note

Welcome! We are thrilled that are using our retrieval practice resource for The Magician’s Nephew Curriculum Unit.

Retrieval Practice

Retrieval Practice is an academic system in which you ask students questions designed to help encode key knowledge into long-term memory. These questions draw on knowledge from the Knowledge Organizer, the novel itself, or recently read embedded texts.

 

Tips for Planning & Implementation

Plan your target response for each Retrieval Practice question. You might note these responses in your teacher-created version of the student packet or simply print out this RP deck.

Decide how students will respond to each Active Practice question: Turn and Talk, Cold Call, Raise Hands, Everybody Writes. Students do not need to write the response for every Retrieval Practice question.

The activity is designed to be fast and energetic with little discussion. The purpose is the retrieval. This helps encode the information in long term memory. A common mistake is to spend time discussing answers to these questions. If students are dying to discuss, it is of course permissible from time to time but doing so is likely to disrupt lesson timings. Occasionally, teachers may choose to engage in brief discussion based on data or to leverage student enthusiasm, but the focus of this section of the lesson should be quick, efficient, and accurate practice.

You will find two slides per retrieval practice. The first slide lists the questions. The second slide lists the answers. Each slide is labeled at the top with the lesson number. Within this deck you will find retrieval practice for lessons 4, 8, 13, 19, and 25.

We currently have included timestamps for each set of questions but know that you may modify these timestamps depending on the needs of your students and length of your ELA block. Ideally, you want to ensure retrieval practice (both worktime and review) takes only 10 minutes.

Things to note:

1) Key terms from the knowledge organizer are written in blue.

2) Answers are written with key ideas or vocabulary in gold.

3) Answers which require examples from the teacher are noted in red. Additional examples are sometimes listed in the notes section of the slide.

4) Each retrieval practice is designed to be student self-scoring with each question worth 1 point unless otherwise noted on the slide. This will allow students to complete, score, and self-report their work.
