What memory trick is associated with this sentence. Do you find such tricks helpful?

That mnemonic is simply stellar!

I always heard it as My Very Educated Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas.

But isn’t it wrong when Neptune and Pluto switch places?

I think it’s easier to remember because it is catchier than memorizing the order of the planets.

Now it would have to end…“Us Nutburgers,” since Pluto has been demoted from planet to cold, small, distant, gray rock.

I would have gone with Nachos myself, but to each their own, I guess.

I think they are great. The order of planets is probably the most recognized.

I still remember my teacher writing this on the chalkboard in 4th grade: “desert” has one “s” for “sand” and “dessert” has two for “sweet stuff”. Another one I found helpful is using the name Roy G. Biv for the colors of the rainbow.

I still use “never eat soggy waffles” to remember my directions hehe.

in primary school, when students were confused about Ascending order and Descending order, our teacher explained in this way—Ascending starts with the letter “A” which is small (or comes first). Hence, ascending is small to big….........it helped us a lot!!!

Also, not to forget the famous All Silver Tea Cups in mathematics

Kindly Pass Children Oreas For Goodness Sake——Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species

In the 8th grade (age 13/14) we were taught to remember Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species using “King Phillip Came Over For Good Sex.” We loved that teacher.

How about, Please, My Dear Aunt Sally.

I suddenly feel as though I should slap one of those sheets of gold stars on Jayne’s face.

On a side note, I refuse to accept Pluto’s demotion.
Screw that.

When I was a kid I found them helpful, no longer. That’s honestly the only one I remember, occasionally I remember a few from my algebra classes.

@asmonet, we’re a step ahead of you here in Illinois.

@LKidKyle1985 Dont forget the excuse… we don’t want to leave out the exponents.
