Revisit and review

Revisiting learning is the practice of regularly coming back to content that’s already been taught. Revisiting learning can activate prior knowledge to connect new learning with what students already know (from their previous learning at school, in the community and at home). Importantly, revisiting what’s been taught consolidates new learning. 

This practice guide will help you understand how to: 

• provide regular opportunities for students to revisit and review their learning 
• identify, model and integrate the features of effective review to support students with retaining and applying their learning.
