Learning how to learn – supporting students with SEND to learn for tests and exams
Neil discusses learning how to learn with SEND and outlines ways to support students with SEND to learn for tests and exams. The session focuses on making revision ‘memorable’ for students who struggle to process and retain information when learning for tests.
3 takeaways from Neil’s training session
– Revisit paired reading approaches which support quick thinking, slow decoders to select and process key information from text –
– Engage with a range of kinaesthetic processing and organising techniques to improve retention and recall –
– Understand why retrieval activities have more impact than drilling, rote learning and ‘going back over it’ –
This session is aimed at Teachers, Senior Leaders, SENCOs, parents/carers and other educational professionals working with children with SEND.
