"screen -r" to reattach or "screen -d -r" to detach another connection and reattach here.
Yep, that's pretty much it.
# Run screen screen
# Do stuff stuff
# Then "detach" (the meta key's usually CTRL) CTRL-a d <--- This detaches from your session but leaves it running
# SSH back to the system then re-attach screen -r
It's all pretty well explained and documented in the Gentoo Wiki as someone earlier posted. http://gentoo-wiki.com/TIP_Using_screen#First_steps
