Secrets of a Super Memory (Teachers)

This class adds the fourth R to Readin', 'Ritin', and 'Rithmatic. The fourth R is Remembering. A big chunk of a student's academic success is based on remembering.

• Learned 100 foreign language words in a weekend
• Been able to list the 43 presidents of the United States in order after an hour of study
• Memorized chapters in a textbook and then recited back major points and examples
• Explained in order the 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution after an hour of memory work

• The 3S technique for remembering everything from vocabulary to science terminology
