Kahoot for retrieval practice and consolidation

In this video, Kimberley Doyle, a teacher at Prescot Primary school (primary), shares how she makes use of an online quizzing tool for retrieval practice and consolidation of new learning.

In classroom footage, you’ll see how Kimberley makes use of the tool, for dealing with misconceptions and consolidating learning so that pupils can move on. You’ll hear how she has established routines around the use of the tool and how the quizzes support her own planning so that she can assess, address and adapt to meet her pupils’ needs.

The tool used by Kimberley is:

• Kahoot – An online multiple-choice quizzing tool

Whilst Kimberley makes use of iPads, consider what might enable you to achieve similar in your own context if you don’t have a 1-1 iPad scheme.
