Chunking • The brain needs time to create connections and pathways to move learning into long term memory. • The hippocampus can only hold so much • Too much, too fast, it won’t last.

With oxygen now moving to the brain, learners can:
learn better and remember more
andthat is a very good thing. (especially before a test)
Take Off…Touch Down • Students should move more than the teacher. • The brain needs oxygen for optimal learning. • For most students, provide 20 minutes of instruction and 5 minutes of processing. • Chunking instruction allows time for students to process information.
to standing change from sitting
Have a Standing Meeting • What have you heard so far that makes sense? • What changes will you make in your teaching because of this? • Find a group of 3-ish to have your conversation.
from watching to change talking
Teach Back: Ten to Two • Work in pairs • One person is teacher, one is student • Teacher: Explain the Ten to Two philosophy. Use the words “chunk” and “process” in your explanation. • Student: Listen to the teacher. Ask questions for clarification. • Switch roles.
to writing change from reading
Summarizing with the Final Countdown • Ask students to reflect on what they have learned about the topic. • Use the Final Countdown strategy. • First Tier - Write the three most important facts that the student learned. • Second Tier - Write two questions that the student still has about the topic. • Top Tier - Write one way in which the student can connect the topic to material previously learned. from Instructional Strategies for Engaging Learners Guilford County Schools TF, 2002
Final Countdown • Tier One: Three things you learned to help make learning stick. • Tier Two: Two questions you still have. • Tier Three: One way you will apply these in your classroom.
