WORDS,LINES AND SPEECHES
There are two main techniques for remember words,lines and speeches:
​
1. Repetition
-Professional actors are said to learn lines most effectively by rereading a play or parts in a play many times over a short period. As an example, they may read something to be remembered 5 to 10 times a day over 4 days.
2. Keyword/Journey System
-An alternative approach using mnemonics is to use the journey system, with a stop for each line.
At each stop you can either code the key images or words, or can adopt a technique where you associate each word in the line.
​
Below is an example of simple essay :
"The day I picked my dog up from the pound was one of the happiest days of both of our lives. I had gone to the pound just a week earlier with the idea that I would just "look" at a puppy. Of course, you can no more just look at those squiggling little faces so filled with hope and joy than you can stop the sun from setting in the morning. I knew within minutes of walking in the door that I would get a puppy… but it wasn't until I saw him that I knew I had found my puppy."
-That is the example for the first sentence in the essay.
​
-Using this kind of method can help student to easy in memorize some of the hard essay.
