Long-term memory hack

Putting it all together



Imagine if your child had the ability to remember anything they learned at school.
Not just the next week... but forever.When your child has the skill to transfer information into their long term memory they will never have to worry about forgetting things again.And that's what I'm sharing with you today: How to use a special brain hack to lock information into long term memory.If you take away just one idea from this training - make it this one - because this single skill will help your child achieve better grades throughout their years at school.But first we need to realise this:

It's natural for our brains to forget.

Our brains have a clever mechanism for filtering information: if it doesn't seem crucial, it fades away.This can be seen in the forgetting curve below, revealing how memory retention declines by 50% after just one hour, plummeting to a mere 10% after a week.

But here's the twist: we can outsmart this natural process by using spaced repetition...By engaging in short reviews at specific intervals, we send a clear signal to our brains: this information is vital and worth retaining.

Spaced repetition: the secret to long term memory

Check out the graph below and you'll see something pretty cool - quick reviews at 10 minutes, 1 day, 1 week, and 1 month after learning bring recall back up to 100%... and can keep it there with just a little effort.It's an easy trick that locks in new information to long term memory ... and that means your child will have these facts forever!

So by now you might be thinking, “That all sounds great… but how exactly do I put this to use?Well… I’m glad you asked :-)The good news is that this technique is built into the Fast-Track app so you'll be able to see it in action with your child...

Important 'MIX' reviews built into FastTrack:

As your child progresses through the FastTrack app, they’ll start to see more MIX reviews between each new step.These reviews are designed to strengthen their learning by revisiting key facts at just the right time to help them stick.

What if my child is stuck?

It’s completely normal for your child to get stuck at times — it’s actually an important part of the learning process.Encourage them to take a deep breath and try again, reminding them that mistakes are how we learn.If they’re feeling too frustrated, it’s okay to pause and reset the game to an earlier step. This gives them a chance to build confidence and strengthen the facts they’re struggling with before moving forward again.To reset the game to an earlier step just click the TRIANGLE ICON at the top left of the screen.

Take the next step...

In the meantime, open the Fast-Track app below so your child can take the next step on their way towards times table mastery.
