STRATEGIES
Imagery strategies are helpful when a student has some grasp of the information to be learned.
Creating images of the information allows for efficient access, and personalizes the learning for
the student.
How can you implement imagery strategies to effectively meet the diverse learning needs of
students?
1. R= Read a sentence
2. I= Image (make an image)
3. D= Describe how the new image is different from the last sentence
4. E= Evaluate (as you make the image, check to be sure it contains everything necessary)
5. R= Repeat (as you read the next sentence, repeat the steps to RIDE)
Each letter of RIDER is a cue for a specific action that would be appropriate for the student to
take in a classroom.
To learn new vocabulary start with the WORD and add an image that explains it, or add an
image funny enough to remind you of the meaning the brain loves funny novel stuff.
Another strategy: turn what you need to learn into a picture, or a series of pictures. You’ll
remember more.
Tip, if you’re using spiral notebook for your studies put your notes on the page to the right and
put pictures on the page to the left, simple stick figures

himself where I am? What did I just read? Well visualizing can help.
