    Brain dump - Buddy - Book. An opportunity for retrieval practice in a lesson. Step 1 students recall information from long term memory about the topic & fill in the first column. Step 2 involves students talking to their partner or peers, to collect any additional information for the second column. The final step involves learners using their class book, textbook or knowledge organiser to self assess (checking & correcting their work) and adding any further relevant information.

    When we master our time, we can master anything: Feeling swamped with endless tasks? It's a common issue that hits productivity hard. On average, most people are only productive for about 3 hours in an 8-hour workday. (Atlassian) Your busy day doesn't have to end in frustration. Use these 4 time-tested methods to win your workday: 1. Pomodoro Technique:    - Focus for 25 minutes, rest for 5.    - After 4 cycles, take a longer break.    - Rinse and repeat. 2. Eisenhower Matrix:    - Sort tasks by urgency and importance.    - Do, Decide, Delegate, or Delete.    - Clear priorities mean clear focus. 3. 3-3-3 Method:    - 3 hours of deep work on major tasks.    - 3 smaller goals for momentum.    - 3 maintenance tasks to keep life smooth. 4. 2 Minute Rule:    - If it's quick, do it now.    - Bigger tasks? Break down, delegate, or defer. Each method has its merits. Try one or combine them for a powerhouse approach to your workday.
