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.

I float over the world with such ease.
Faery Dust sprinkles from my pant legs. It cures blind orphans.
The triangle people have put on their dance mittens. Love is all around.
I spew glazed donut holes for everybody.
