Today is Day 2 of meorization recitations. Again, everyone did a wonderful job!

Following our feats of memory, we had a discussion about our methods. Most people chose to do the Memory Palace and those who did tried to make memorable associations in their minds between the books and the loci within their imagined space.

In many respects, those of us who have the titles memorized and are listing to the recitations are listening to and oral story that we have heard before and are remembering and comparing to what we know.

Because we have all done so well inour memorizations, our next assignment will be to compose and memorize an 'epic' poem about a classmate. Yay...this should be fun, right?
