Allergy
For some reasons Sasha had a runny nose that lasted for more than 3 weeks. I finally took him to the doctor and was told he might have allergy. Sasha was prescribed a nasal spray that miraculously cured his runny nose in just 3 days. We have already used air purifier with HEPA filter in the house but now I am contemplating to buy a Dyson vacuum cleaner to help capture dust and loose allergen.

Photo Memory
Last Thursday one of the Shichida lessons in class was photo memory exercise. The instructor used 12 different picture cards that consisted of number, objects, colors, and people in random places. Sasha got them all correct and he did it in lighting speed. This is a significant improvement since he used to dwell in putting the pictures together. Even the instructor noticed that too. Sasha put together the picture without thinking twice and just tap..tap...tap...tap.

Peg Memory
In one of the Shichida Method many lessons for memorization, there is one activity that involves memorizing 100 pictures (in order) called peg memory. Sasha has so far memorized all 100 of them with 1-50 pictures being his most fluent. Meaning, he can correctly say what picture associates with what number easily. The technique to be successful in memorizing these pictures is to repeat them in 20 pictures and keep adding some more until 100.
