Why are we developing flashcard practice?
We know how important it is that your students are secure in core knowledge. Flashcard tasks give students lots of quickfire retrieval so that they have it at their fingertips.
How can I set flashcards?
Flashcards is currently in pilot and we are gradually rolling out to schools during the 25/26 academic year.
For schools in the pilot:
Flashcards tasks will automatically be added to homework.
The rest of the homework will be slightly shorter so that the overall length is unchanged.
There's no change to how you currently set homework in Sparx Science.
