February 2026 Jam Session: How to Make Retrieval Routines a Classroom Habit
Welcome! 👋 In the thread below, share a question or details on how you are making retrieval practice part of your classroom routine.
Together, our hosts are here to break down what the research says about retrieval practice and how they implement these routines in their classrooms. They'll also reflect on what they have learned by making retrieval practice a regular instructional strategy.
Not sure where to start? Check out this video of retrieval practices in action in Leah’s fourth-grade classroom.
This chat will be live Sunday, February 22, 2026, through Saturday, February 28, 2026. We encourage you to jump in anytime and come back as often as you like. Leah, Maureen, Rob, Youki, and the Edutopia team will be responding in the comments all week.
Let’s jam! 🎶
