Dual language books (1 page in Spanish, the next contains the translation in English): you may forget the words if you only know the sounding but are unsure about the spelling. But will remember them much longer if you have read them.
Please, tell me how many times you were surprised to recognize in a banner the spelling/writing of a word you had heard many times (but had never read).
