Memory Exercises
Pictures – Kim’s Game
This presentation includes screens with a number of
pictures, starting with 4 and increasing to 5. When
the student has memorised the pictures on a slide,
left click to move on to the blank screen, then, move
to the next slide, and ask the student to identify the
missing item (the position of the items has been
changed). Time limits can be set both for the
memorising, and for the delay before showing the
slide with the picture missing. Left click again to
check the answer. Left click to go on to the next
screen.
If the student can do the task for a certain number of
pictures with no difficulty, change the timings and/or
step up to the next level. There is a separate
PowerPoint with 6 and 7 pictures. When they
experience difficulty, explore strategies, such as
verbal rehearsal, visualisation and making links
between pictures (e.g. making them into a story).
The background colour can be changed to suit the
individual student. Select `format’ from the toolbar,
click `background’ then click on the down arrow
underneath the picture of a graph, select `more
colours’ then select the preferred colour, press `OK’
then press `apply to all’.
