Have students trace one or both (depending on if they have 5 or 10 things to memorize) of their hands onto construction paper. In each finger have students give 1-3 words (and maybe a picture) that describes a the fact to be memorized. For example, if students need to memorize the Bill of Rights (first 10 amendments of the constitution), they may number each finger on their hand. On the second finger they can write "Bear Arms" for the short meaning on the 2nd amendment.
