Hi James, One thing you might try to get them to remember all the components of a dish or the name of it is the "loci method". I use it a lot in my classes with good results. I break my students into groups of 2-3 depending on how many students I have and how many items I want the students to remember. I have the students draw a picture of the item on poster paper. I locate the pictures throughout the room in relation to the wall, ceiling, floor, corner, etc. I then review the items with the students so they are seeing a student cartoon version of the item in a specific location. We review out loud several times and then I remove some of the posters and review then a few more until they are all removed. What happens is that by this time I can point to a specific location and the students can give me the name of the object. What is happening is the creation of a mind location connection so it reinforces the name of the item in the working memory of students. Gary
