= set of strategies improvement in memory 4 new information
Link new to old through visual/acoustic cues
Wide range of abilities (gifted LD)
All grade levels

TYPES
1.Keyword = word that sounds familiar to word/concept being taught; used with illustration e.g. carline
2.Pegword = set of rhyming words used to represent numbers e.g. one = bun

TEACHER
Create mnemonic
Explicit instruction:
“Here is a good way to remember this.”
Go through the steps using the mnemonic to demo its use in retrieval
Practice w/students independence

Teach students how to use the p-strategy
Have students say p-strategy for each math fact
E.g. Sticks (6) and Sticks (6) = Dirty Sticks (36)
