Recognise plans that spread practice, include all four skills and revisit earlier material. The written questions assess planning choices, not actual follow-through.

Short slots on several days give repeated contact with words and phrases. Spreading practice and revisiting material can help memory. The written questions check planning choices, not whether you have practised across several weeks. For a spoken-language course, include listening, speaking, reading and writing across the week. You might hear a recording, say familiar phrases, read a short text and write sentences. Silent reading and writing alone do not directly practise understanding speech or speaking. *(drawing: Each skill has a place. A short slot can combine skills too.)* Choose days, times and activities that fit your week, leaving time for rest. Record completed slots. If a time repeatedly clashes with another activity, move it or shorten the task. After a missed slot, you can resume at the next planned time. Return to material from earlier days and weeks. To check an old word, cover its meaning and try to recall it. Uncover the answer and check. Practise words you missed before adding more. Saying a phrase in a sentence is another active task. **Example.** Lena plans ten minutes after dinner on five days. She starts with old phrases and then uses new ones. She records completed slots. Her ticks show that practice happened. To check memory, she tries recalling the phrases and compares her answers with the correct ones. Review which skills your activities practise. If listening is missing, use part of an existing slot for a listening task. Keep some time for the other skills. This changes the balance without adding time. Check what you can do later; an adjustment does not promise a particular result. **Recap.** Plan short practice across the week, include all four skills, revisit old material and check what you can do. *Original lesson, questions and flashcards about choosing and checking language-practice plans, written for this learning dataset.* ## Practice 8 questions on this page, each with its working shown. ## Optional connections - [Listening and speaking in a new language](https://lightmysky.com/learn/languages/listening-and-speaking-in-a-new-language-mt_iXtqoIfjHb) - [Setting learning goals](https://lightmysky.com/learn/learning-to-learn/setting-learning-goals-mt_jIszRCO2ij) - [Writing More Than One Sentence](https://lightmysky.com/learn/languages/writing-more-than-one-sentence-mt_o-mglXOz-_) ## Opens up - [Choosing strategies for listening to speech](https://lightmysky.com/learn/languages/choosing-strategies-for-listening-to-speech-mt_QC3x14zrgx)
