Workshop overview

Within this session, I will be looking at the science of memory and its impact on knowledge requisition, including the importance of including children in the discussion around memory. This will allow me to explore how to create a culture of reflection within the classroom: I will provide practical strategies and suggestions for how to help children develop their meta-cognitive thinking through an understanding of themselves as learners and the importance of memory
