Repetition is the mother of all skills

Luckily repetition is the mother of all skills so if you can steer children to do something that that they like doing, and that is at the same time good for them, such as learning, then they will repeat it and repeat it and increase their skill at doing it.

Kids have a natural tendency to repeat the things they like, for example my kids will watch the same film a hundred times and they just love it whereas me, if I watch a film once it would have to be three years before I could watch it again.

So, when kids like something, they want to do it over and over and over again. So how can you encourage your children to repeat things that help them improve their learning and abilities at school.

You probably have read about the first two stages of The Learning Well Method of learning. We now have reached stage 3. If not we invite you to read our earlier two Blog entries before reading this one.

3) The third stage is – Do you know it?

The Memory Map can be used to test what your child or children know about the subject, as written down in their Memory Maps.

At the heart of this system, is creating the habit of expressing what your children know without a judgment about getting it wrong. There is no failure, there are only results. Instead of criticizing, the testing process is about gaining feedback and learning what can be improved on next time. How do you do this?
