When I was learning them I would learn the first ten, then the first fifteen, and just keep building off it like the "I went to market and I bought an apple, a giraffe, a pogo stick" game. I can recite the first fifty something in order, but I stopped learning because I don't take a science class so it's useless. Also, some series of elements would form words kinda. Like.....'Sodium Magnesium Aluminium Silicon Phosphorus Sulfur" = SMASPS
And some are easier to learn in blocks, like "Scandium Titanium Vanadium Chromium Manganese"...and "Iron Cobalt Nickel Copper Zinc"
I just feel they go together and are easier to remember as a group.
