Memory Master

Today, Weston entered the elite ranks of what is known in the CC world as a Memory Master. What that means is that he memorized every single piece of information he was presented with in CC this year! The list of memorized facts consists of over 500 items, including the following:

  • 161 events and people in a chronological timeline (from Creation to 2001)
  • 24 History sentences, spanning from 800 AD to 1994
  • All 44 presidents, in order
  • Over 100 locations and geographic features in Europe, Asia and other select parts of the world
  • 24 Science facts, including biomes, planets, laws of motion and laws of thermodynamics, etc.
  • Latin verb endings of the 1st conjugation
  • English Grammar facts covering the eight parts of speech to varying degrees, with an especially heavy emphasis on the different types of pronouns
  • Multiplication tables (skip counting) up to 15 x 15, common squares and cubes, basic geometry formulas, unit conversions and four mathematical laws
This is a HUGE accomplishment, and we couldn't be prouder of Weston and the hard work he put in to earning this honor! He is also the youngest student on our campus who received the award this year!
