What is Sequential Memory?

It is the ability to remember a series of forms and find it among four other series of forms. Visual sequential memory reflects a child's ability to recall a series or sequence of forms.

But if someone struggles in this area, it can cause problems with:

• sequencing letters or numbers in words or math problems

• remembering the alphabet in sequence

• copying from one place to another (from board to book, or from one side of the paper to another)

• spelling

• performing math equations

• retrieving words with reversals, or when out of order

• remembering orders of events after reading (affects reading comprehension)

• forgetting assignments, or steps that are shown in an activity

If you are noticing that your child is experiencing similar struggles, please call us (253) 237-3405 to schedule a discovery visit. We would love to help you and your child!
