Working memory helps students learn new information, retrieve and remember new information and make connections to background knowledge. Students with poor working memory will struggle with learning to read, spell, memorize math facts, follow directions, and actively listen to oral instructions. Testing the range of a students visual sequential memory, and auditory memory is a place to start looking for student interventions. The skills involved with working memory are seeing or listening for new information, attending the information, processing (making meaning), storing (making connections), and recalling (using the information).
Are your students having difficulty with:
- following oral directions
- memorizing basic spelling words
- remembering new words
- learning math facts
- concentrating on oral presentations
- renaming words or switching words
- note taking during lectures
- remembering days, months or schedule times
