Does your child find the Major System too abstract?

The DOMINIC system uses people and actions to represent numbers. Abacus trains the number‑to‑image skill needed.

Here’s the promise: You’ll learn a fun, face‑based memory system.

🧩 How the DOMINIC System Works

Each two‑digit number is assigned a person (using initials from the Major system) and an action. When you need to recall a long number, you string people and actions together in a memorable scene.

🎯 Creating Your DOMINIC System

Step 1: Use the Major system to convert a two‑digit number into consonant sounds. Step 2: Create a person whose initials match the sounds (e.g., 32 = m+n → ‘Mario’ or ‘Mona’). Step 3: Choose a distinctive action for that person. Step 4: For a sequence of numbers, imagine the first person performing an action on the second person, etc. Start with 10‑20 characters, gradually expand.

💡 A Parent’s Experience

“We created a DOMINIC system for 00‑99. 18 (‘af’) became ‘Abraham Lincoln’ (Abe + F?). 42 (‘rn’) became ‘Ron Weasley.’ My son remembers a 10‑digit number as a story: ‘Ron Weasley fights Abraham Lincoln.’ He loves it.”

You might wonder, “Is this too much work?” Start small — 10 numbers for now. Expand as needed.
