Do like 2 sentences at a time and say it over and overrr... OR write it down, seeing it really helps!

This is what I do.

First I read the sentence that I want to memorize, ONCE.

Then I try to sing/say it back to myself in my head. See how much I remember, just by reading it once.

I look back, and see what I made mistakes from, and what to get correct.

Then I do it again, so on, and so forth.
Good Luck!

When I was younger I did many many plays, wher I would need to memorize lines. The thing that helped me most was to hear another person read my lines to me. Get a parent or friend to read one line of the poem, then you read the next. You will get a rythm going and you will remember it like your name.

Good Luck

Learn it backwards. Like for example if the last sentence was, "And my dog died," then you would memorize, "died dog my and" <b> after</b> you had memorized it the right way around.

Studies have consistently shown that this is one of the most effective ways to memorize something-I do it all the time to remember words for songs.

Pretend it's like your favorite song.

Record yourself saying it.
And then listen to it any tine possible.

heres some tips.
*make a song out of it.. or like add it to a beat or rhythum
*read it over and over.
*do a little at a time/ break it up into sections
*retype/rewrite it.
*read it outloud.
*take breaks when you need to.
*make sure you understand the lines of the poem and what its trying to say
*make a recording, and play it in the car or on a jog, or just hanging around your room
*have someone help you.. incase you get stuck after you have parts memorized.

Start with two lines at a time.
Memorize the first two, then the next two lines.
Put them together, and memorize the next two..etc. etc.

Write down the poem while your reading it out loud. Write it/read it a bunch of times.

Have someone quiz you and help you.

Record the poem onto a tape and listen to it as you say it.

Type it into word pad a lot of times too.

Hopefully I helped . . . good luck =)
