Retrieval starter

A Do Now for the board. Type the questions, set the minutes, press Start. Answers come out one at a time when you are ready. Keep old starters and mix a few of their questions back in, so last month's topic does not disappear.

How to use it

  1. Type five or six questions with the answer after an equals sign. Give it a title and press Save starter.
  2. Press Start. The timer counts down and the class writes answers. A low tone at the end.
  3. Press Reveal beside each question as you go through them, or Reveal all. Press 1 to 9 to reveal a question from the keyboard.
  4. Set "Mix in" to 2 and the board adds two random questions from your older saved starters underneath today's. Spaced retrieval without any planning.
