These blog posts from @AceThatTest give insight about why spaced practice isn't common practice. We might add (from experience!) that it is hard to write curriculum that makes use of spacing. Few spiraling curricula = less use of spacing in classrooms. https://t.co/zgs4qvWtIQ

@nativenashdude @jordanbpeterson This is the handle for the authors of the Everyday Mathematics and UCSMP Secondary curricular materials at the University of Chicago. We are not part of the Mathematics Department and have nothing to do with the content of the article you are responding to.

This blog does a great job of explaining some of the reasons we build so much practice into the #EverydayMathematics curriculum in the form of games. What games do your students like? What other types of practice do you use in your math classroom? https://t.co/WRVO4lWozi

We hear from many teachers who want to teach math in small groups, like they teach reading. But some reports question reading grouping practices. Do you group for math? How do you ensure your groups are fluid and beneficial? https://t.co/4JcPThfJNx #iteachmath #mtbos
