Memory strategies are ways you can organize information or make information interesting or meaningful enough to you to easily remember. For example, chunking and rehearsing.

Chunking is a memory strategy that you may already use without realizing. It is a way of grouping information to make it easier to remember.

For example, telephone numbers are broken down into smaller number chunks you can remember (for example 303-555-5309).

Rehearsing is repeating information over and over again. This helps to hold it in your working memory and makes it easier to move to your long term memory.
