Do you or your child self-quiz?
If not, check out this powerful technique.
Close your book and put your notes away. Now try to write or sketch everything you know about the topic you are trying to learn.
You won't remember it all but that is okay.
The process of trying to recall is beneficial in itself.
When you have exhausted what comes to mind then open your book/notes and start to determine what you missed and what you need to work on more.
The basic idea is to actively engage with the material by attempting to recall it from memory, rather than simply reviewing it passively.
There is significant neuroscience research backing the effectiveness of this technique.
One way in which I incorporate self-quizzing into my teaching is that I ask students to resolve out-of-memory problems they got wrong in homework or problems we solved in class that they initially found challenging.

“I can do it!"
These are words heard often from toddlers. This phrase is a marker of growth, and a point of pride.
But as your child moves into elementary school, you may not hear these words as often or with as much confidence as before.
Learning math is great for teaching perseverance. With the right math instruction, your child can see their progress and once again feel that “I can do it” attitude.
The rush of excitement a child experiences when they master a new concept sticks in their memory. And they can reflect back on it when they’re struggling with a new, harder skill.
Even when things get tough, they’ll know they can keep trying and eventually overcome it — because they’ve done it before.
