The students, ranging in age from six to 11 years old, earned the title Memory Master on Friday, May 1. They had to test with four separate educators and accurately answer all the materials.
Each child spent approximately an hour to an hour and a half recalling facts from Geography, English, Latin, Math, Science and US History, as well as a chronological timeline of 160 events and people.
Included within the material memorized by the students were the Preamble to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; 120 locations and geographic features in the United States; the elements of the periodic table and the parts of eight body systems; Latin rules and vocabulary, including the text of the Gospel of John 1:1-7 in both Latin and English; English grammar facts; multiplication table to the 15’s, common squares and cubes, basic geometry formulas and unit conversions; and all 44 US presidents.
