How the Simple Solutions Approach Works

Our approach uses three research-based, proven strategies to encourage a deeper understanding of concepts. For decades, these strategies—retrieval practice, spacing, and interleaving—have been setting students up for success in the classroom.

Research-Backed Approach and Routine for Success

Our method leverages spiraling and daily review through proven strategies like retrieval practice, spaced practice, and interleaving to ensure students deeply understand and retain social studies concepts. Contact us today to enhance your social studies instruction.

  • Retrieval Practice: Reinforce learning by having students recall information regularly, strengthening memory pathways.
  • Spaced Practice: Also referred to as “spiraling,” encourages long-term retention by revisiting concepts over time.
  • Interleaving: Also called “mixed review” or “mixed practice,” challenge students with varied material to enhance critical thinking and adaptability.
