Do you sometimes forget things? You put down your phone or your purse. Then
you forget it. Is it on your desk? Is it on a table or in a backpack? How can you
remember? Put something in a place. Then say the place aloud. You can say, “I
am putting my purse on the chair by the door.” That can help you remember.
