Help with Memory Difficulties

Don’t worry – there’s lots of things that can

help people who have difficulty remembering:

1. Record instructions on talk buttons

2. Have a ‘memory buddy’ who can help you

3. Use picture reminders of things to take home or to school- put the

reminder somewhere you look at before you leave

4. Take photos of important things to remember

5. Say instructions out loud and put movements to them

6. Draw Mind Maps of important bits of information to remember

7. Jot a quick flowchart of the main steps of a task

Try different ways. Which work best for you?
