Submitted Monday, April 10, 2006

Repetition -  Try setting up a system for yourself. Reciting the passage each morning and evening for 20 minutes.

Constant Referral and Reading

Visualize the Words -  This may include drawing pictures on the page of the passage you are trying to memorize and then memorizing a series of pictures to recall the passage.

Vocalize-Reciting Out Loud

Memorize the passage through Song

Make Flashcards -  Put a sentence or part of a sentence on each card. As you begin to memorize you will anticipate what card is coming next, or rather what part of the passage follows.

Write and Rewrite

Break the quote into phrases by preference or rhythm.

Use colors to recall parts of the passage -  This could include highlighting the passage in different colors.

Practice memorization with others - 1. One person recites while another listens and reads the passage on the page. 2. One person looks at the text, practice going back and forth each person saying one word at a time. Then switch duties.

Reflect on the application of the quotation and use it!

Pictionary or Charades is a good way to have fun and memorize!


Tomorrow we set out a search for our new junior youth group, where they will find 9 words of a quotation 'Let every morn be better than the evening before..'hidden in the neigbourhood; for each word they have to do a small assignment. When they come back we ask them to recite the quotation.
