This list is called the peg list, the standard list of words that are pegged permanently to the numbers. You can replace any of these words with rhymes that are more meaningful to you, but make sure that the words you choose rhyme with the numbers. This creates both a visual and an auditory connection between the words and numbers, strengthening these links in your brain. It also makes the words and their corresponding numbers easy to memorize.

It’s also important that each word represent an object, something that provides you with a visual image. For example, if you decided to use “done” instead of “bun” to rhyme with the number one, what kind of visual image might “done” evoke? It could be different in every season, or from one day to the next. To make this memory method work properly, the word you choose needs to bring up a standardized image instantly. You will always know what a bun is, and if you imagine a hamburger bun on one day and a glaze-covered sticky bun on another, it’s still a bun.

The number rhyming method is particularly useful for memorizing a list that has to be recalled in a specific order. For example, let’s memorize the five steps of the scientific method, in the order in which they must take place.
