The patrol leader reads aloud a list of 15 unrelated words three times. The boys must write down these words from memory in the same order. For remembering a word in the correct order—2 points, in the wrong order—1 point.

Variation: The words are related to one another.

Variation: Instead of words—7 two- or three-digit numbers. Naturally, in all variations, we begin with the easier exercise before moving on to the more difficult one.
