The Peg Method by Dolores Orta https://padlet.com/doloresorta/pegmethod Words that have no sense relationships can be linked together using the peg method. To hook these words, you have to memorize a rhyme like 'one is the sun, two is the moon, three is a tree etc'. Then you create an image of the word to be remembered and the peg word together. Let’s suppose your studying semantic fields or “ways of” looking. If the first word to be remembered is gaze, then an image of a person that will gaze at the maize (peg word) is created; if the term to remember is stare, then the person may stare at the mare (peg word). Reciting the rhyme will draw up these images, which in turn will prompt the target words. This mnemonic method has proved twice as efficient than simple rote memorization, so let's give it a try and share our productions here, where other students can memorise our poems, and together we can remember more words. en-us 2017-07-06 19:25:24 UTC 2020-10-05 20:51:13 UTC hello@padlet.com Dr. Anthony Metivier's look into the Peg Method doloresorta https://padlet.com/doloresorta/pegmethod/wish/178224386 Have a go at exploring In Praise of the Mnemonic Peg-System by Dr. Anthony Metivier, author and leading memory trainer. You can then create some more examples of your own and share them on this wall.]]> 2017-07-06 23:34:52 UTC https://padlet.com/doloresorta/pegmethod/wish/178224386 An example of the Peg Method doloresorta https://padlet.com/doloresorta/pegmethod/wish/178226324 When it comes down to verbs that relate to CONFORMITY and which collocate with the preposition “to”, we can consolidate some of them by using numbers as a PEG:
 
3 is “adhere (to)”
4 is “conform (to)”
5 is “subscribe (to)”
6 is “stick (to)”
10 is “assent (to)” and “consent (to)”

Here, you're hanging information on a number, and this is called "the number-rhyme technique". Enjoy!
