different types of memory


There are many kinds of memory. Those which engage our senses are called sensory . Here are some examples:

visual “ you remember things you see

auditory “ you remember things you hear

kinaesthetic “ you remember movements and feelings

tactile “ you remember what you touch with your hands

taste “ you remember flavours

smell “ you remember scents and smells

Test yourself with the words below. What memories are evoked? Try to apply the list above for each word one by one in order to evoke memories of various kinds. What senses give you the best result? Write down beside the words the memories you evoke.
