Long Term Retention With Lymboo Math


The unique structure of Lymboo Math program provides continuous reinforcement of math concepts. In addition to practice assignments, students also do a variety of periodic, progressive review tests designed to enhance retention. This methodology makes it less likely for students to forget what was learned, and also diminishes the chances that those concepts be retaught in later years.
Every student begins the program at a comfortable level determined by a set of comprehensivediagnostic tests. Students are challenged at every step of the curriculum through timed tests that require the students to demonstrate proficiency:
  • Daily Practice : Daily practice assignments provide the rigor and the discipline necessary to thoroughly understand and learn a concept.
  • Unit Review : While daily practice assignments promote mastery of a skill, it's the periodic unit review assignments that 'cement' the learned concepts and improve short-term retention.
  • Stage Review : Stage review assignments challenge the students to recall a variety of concepts learned over a longer period of time, thereby promoting long-term retention.
