Memory Techniques Worksheet: Memory Pictures
Memory tip (See it big and silly): Strong pictures: a giant pink elephant, a pencil that dances, a bus made of ice, a frog wearing a crown. Weak pictures: a plain grey box, the word in small print, a blurry shape, a list of words only. Add a sense — sight, sound, smell, touch or taste: “hearing a drum boom”, “tasting raw mango”.
