#Memory master review plus#
Multiplication tables through the fifteens plus squares and cubes, conversions, and math laws.Twenty-four science questions and answers.The entire timeline of 160 events from creation to modern times.The amount of information we ask the students to master is lengthy. We do not focus on test scores, but on what is really in their head to stay. I followed the “cram-it-and-forget-it” method in my own education, but now I see the foolishness of that and I am careful to help my children see the wisdom of truly mastering the material. We define “mastery” of the information as having committed the information to long-term memory, which means we do not cram for a single test and then forget it. “Memory Master” is an honor bestowed on Foundations students who have mastered all of the memory work during the twenty-four weeks of Foundations class. Ah, springtime-warm breezes, daffodils, sunshine, and among Classical Conversations families, practicing for “Memory Master”!
