>>>I'd like to give some fun activity <<< >>>to give them an idea of how<<< >>>it feels to have poor working memory. <<< Sorry, Fiona, please don't play, it is upsetting. It is *not* fun activity and it is on a par with the "reading as a dyslexic" cyrillic alphabet type "fun activity"... please, I beg you do not do it. And "sturlettoapnock" to those who've been on that dyslexia friendly course.... of course you can remember the blessed word... visual memory and phonics dear people. .... remember there's a huge problem in just trying to forget too - when one has had to train oneself to remember. Hence the "dyslexia friendly" word set in stone in the memory... ) Treat it seriously as it is not fun to have STM problems. Normals have no idea of the frustrations, angst and sheer fear. Please do do the strategies and routines that help sufferers instead. Check McLoughlins books. I have a MSWord on WMTB-C by the Psych Corp that EPs can use and a couple of Inspiration Mind Maps within the the same document. ( A Mum asked me what the EP meant.) Sorry, there- summer rant over - have a great vacation. John. ( wanted to cry re games and fun activities of "the be a dyslexic for a day" variety.) |
