I have to admit that I’m not used to talking so much through a blog. But this is good practice. For today’s theme I want to talk about a very popular learning device, the mnemonic. In the past I have used mnemonics as a tool in my own efforts to remember things. Sometimes it helps and other times it does not. Often the times it doesn’t is when I don’t have something that I find easy to remember. Why not learn from some really good one.

Mnemonics is using a silly phrase to remember something such as 1472 Columbus sailed the ocean blue. I thought today I’d go up on the internet and just find out what is out there. Enjoy:
