Forgetting is normal
Everyone forgets. A skill learned well in the fall can fade by winter if it’s never used. That isn’t a failure of the learner; it’s how memory works.
Why spacing helps
Research on memory has long shown that practice spread out over time leads to longer-lasting learning than the same practice crammed together. Each time a child recalls something after a gap, the memory gets stronger.
Forgetting is normal, and fixable.
How we do it
After your child masters a skill, we bring it back at planned intervals, briefly and often mixed with newer work. If it has faded, a little practice brings it back, and we check again later.

- 02Spread-out practice lasts longer than cramming.
- 03Short revisits keep old skills ready.
