Using things around you, memorize a list of 5-10 items you see around you. Write them down, put them in a drawer or turn your list facedown. Or take note of five items mentioned in the business section of your newspaper, or five titles from a book list. In other words you can pick topics of interest and go from there.

Wait a few minutes, then try to recall the items on the list you memorized.

Try reading aloud from a book or magazine - upside-down (the book that is :).

Another activity suggested is to examine a small object you might have with you -key, pen, pill bottle, etc. and describe out loud everything you note about it, size, shape, color, texture, any emotions it calls forth, etc.
