Rapid recall

Retrieval practice you can drop into any lesson

Rapid recall is 15 questions, advised to take 15 minutes. Sets are spaced across earlier topics - not just last lesson - so prior knowledge keeps getting refreshed all year. Project one as your starter, hand it out as a finisher, or set it as a quick recap.

What you get

  • Built on spacing

    Questions deliberately reach back across previous topics, because retrieval only strengthens memory when it has to work for it.

  • Projector-ready and printable

    Every set comes in a projector-friendly version and a printable version, so it works in your room, a lab or a cover lesson.

  • Self-marking by design

    Answers are included with every set - students mark their own in two minutes and you move straight into the lesson.

In the classroom

How teachers use them

  1. Step 1

    Open the lesson with it

    Project a set as the do-now while you take the register. Nothing to print, nothing to prepare.

  2. Step 2

    Let it reach back

    Questions deliberately span topics from weeks ago, because retrieval only strengthens memory when it has to work for it.

  3. Step 3

    Two minutes to mark, then move on

    Answers come with every set, so students mark their own and you are into the lesson before the starter has eaten it.
