How to practice

  1. Start with eight to ten cards, not the whole set.
  2. Show a card. If the answer comes quickly, it goes on the “know it” pile; if not, say it together and put it on the “not yet” pile.
  3. Next time, start with the “not yet” pile and add two new cards.
  4. Five minutes a day is enough. Stop while it is still fun.
