The digital exercises that inspired this worksheet

Private Eye

Primarily, this task exercises your client’s sustained attention and concentration skills. Attention is the essence of focus. Your client will need to focus on looking for a specific target and ignore other visual information that could distract them.

Pay Attention!

This exercise demands your attention skills as well as your working memory. You will see a set of items to remember, and then be tasked to recall them in a specific order. This exercise translates to situations such as remembering a medication regimen or directions to and from a friend’s home.

Seize the Keywords

Retaining information for later use is important for remembering directions to desired locations, functioning in the workplace, completing homework on time, and for running errands. In this exercise, clients must memorize the key elements of a text in order to reconstruct the text in a logical manner. While challenging verbal memory, this exercise also challenges clients to practice the foundational skill of delayed recall.

Elephant Memory

In everyday life, we encounter situations where we must remember information either in the form of words, letters, or numbers. The ability to recall words is needed for speaking, writing, and comprehending language. In this exercise, your clients must memorize a list of words while developing effective strategies to help them remember the words that they have seen. This activity challenges verbal memory, needed for situations such as remembering a grocery list or instructions from a doctor.
