This is done days, weeks or even months ahead of the teaching.Preview: this involves setting the stage for the content minutes or hours ahead. Priming: introducing words, concepts, or skills in advance then coming back to those moments before you teach. Review: Going over what students learned.Revision: Reconstructing the learning. Correcting errors. ReteachingToday Lauren reviews each of these steps in depth and gives examples on how to apply this in your life and teaching.
