Letter Memory

How to play Letter Memory

1. Hold a string of letters in mind and recall it exactly.
2. Read the prompt carefully and choose an answer, or type into the answer field.
3. After checking, read the explanation. Use “Next round” to continue.
4. Complete ten rounds for a score out of 100. Restart creates a fresh session.

A worked example

Recall exactly what you saw. M P X

After studying and hiding the prompt, the answer is MPX. Read in small groups, then recall without looking.

Keep letter order separate from word guessing

The string is a sequence of letters, not necessarily an English word. Preserve the displayed order rather than rearranging it into a familiar spelling. Grouping two or three letters can provide a personal recall strategy, but the submitted answer still needs the full sequence.

Explore grouping with number pairs

A useful way to practice

Group information into small meaningful units. On another day, compare sessions using the same game and similar conditions. A practiced strategy can improve this task without changing every aspect of memory.
