Memory and mnemonics tricks are very useful for helping students to retain information better. Below is a link to a good site for menmonics.
Useful for teaching students and for also making the learning process seem like more of a game!

I would say mnemonics stick much longer than abstract knowledge.
While I haven't heard them in years, I (and probably every one I know) could tell you that "Every Good Boy Does Fine" tells the lines of treble clef, and "Please excuse my dear aunt Sally" stands for order of operations. I'm sure they were reinforced when they were taught, but 10 years later, I still think about my fictional Aunt Sally when I'm doing an algebra problem.
