Memory Tips and Tricks


Try these ideas for remembering things you need to know for quizzes, tests or just because.

Turn a list of words into an acronym.  An acronym uses the first letter of each word to make a new word .
Examples: NBA is the acronym for National basketball Association. SCUBA is the acronym for Self - Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus.

PEMDAS  could be your acronym for remembering the order of operations in math: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplications, Division, Addition, Subtraction.

Turn a list of words into silly sentence. Do you need to remember the names of the planets in their order from Sun- Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto? Make up a sentence using the first letters of each planet's name: " My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas."
