Creating a picture—either in your mind, on paper, or both—can help

you remember what you read. Pay attention to actions and to descrip-

tions and details as well as to comparisons. Put yourself in the place of

the person who is performing the action to make it more real. By creat-

ing an “action movie” in your mind, you bring the reading material to life

and strengthen its place in your memory. You can also draw a diagram of

the material.
