Abstract

The ability to remember new and unfamiliar material is very important for the success students with intellectual and developmental disabilities. As students move through the different grade levels new information is transferred to them and the types of content presented is often more complex. Mnemonic strategies have been proven to help students recall information by making it easier to remember, more meaningful, and more concrete. Mnemonic strategies are an effective study tool which can be utilized with students with intellectual and developmental disabilities and applied to an array of content areas. This manuscript will present a variety of mnemonic strategies that can be very useful when working with students with intellectual and developmental disabilities to improve their vocabulary knowledge.
