What about making a progressive list where you learn two new words (or concepts) every day. Every day, you review the previous list and then add the two new words. My husband was taught in University that you should re-read your class notes each day for 5 minutes. Start with the first day's notes and quickly run through all the notes until you get to the present day's set. By the time you hit the exam, you hardly have to study because at least 50% of the content has been touched daily for a while....We are having the same issue with times tables though...it was great last summer when we would review every day, but unless it is consistently used, it does not stick. Once we hit a few weeks of geometry or measuring, all concepts of tables are quickly wiped off the memory!!
