Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction - ppt download: Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction Rosenshine suggests that excellent teaching contains ten characteristics. Characteristic number 1: Begin a lesson with a short review of previous learning. Daily review can strengthen previous learning and can lead to fluent recall. Research findings Daily review is an important component of instruction. Review can help us strengthen the connections among the material we have learned. The review of previous learning can help us recall words, concepts and procedures effectively and automatically when we need this material to solve problems or to understand new material. The development of expertise requires thousands of hours of practice, and daily review is one component of this practice. In the classroom The most effective teachers in the studies of classroom instruction understood the importance of practice, and they began their lessons with a five-to eight-minute review of previously covered material. Some teachers reviews vocabulary, formulae, events, or previously learned concepts. These teachers provided additional practice on facts and skills that were needed for recall to become automatic.
