These other bits of info act as retrieval cues to spark your memory.

1. How many police officers did you see speaking with the driver on the right side of the picture?

2. Were there any other people nearby that could be used as witnesses in the picture?

3. What kind of car was crushed by the logs in the accident?

4. Was the back window of the car intact?

5. What was the color of the semi cab that passed in front of the crash scene?

6. To help identify witnesses, was the man in the white tank top carrying anything while approaching the cars?

7. What color was the traffic light in the background when the driver hit the other car?

8. To help identify witnesses, what color was the shirt of the man who went to help the driver?

9. What was written on the side of the first semi truck that the suspect passed?

Come up with a skit that reflects the mood/state from the card you receive.

Skit must show you learning something when in the mood/state.

Then in another scene, randomly recalling the information in an awkward situation.
