Rehearsal is another useful strategy. To teach the child to rehearse, the teacher verbally models the rehearsal strategy. For example, “Now, let’s see. I want to remember the names of the provinces in Canada. So, I’ll practice. Quebec, Saskatchewan, Alberta, etc. I’ll say them again.” Some children need only a few examples of rehearsal, and then they need a self-management strategy to cue them to use the rehearsal strategy. They may quickly realize that rehearsal means to repeat the new information aloud or say it to themselves in their heads, but they will probably not easily learn when to use the rehearsal strategy to remember the new information just read or reviewed. Rehearsals of the whole class are also helpful.
