Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The difficulty in remembering letters in the middle of the alphabet reflects the serial-position effect, which means that items in the middle of a list or sequence are harder to remember than those at the beginning or end. This suggests that the child may not have fully memorized the entire alphabet or may need more practice in recalling the middle letters. Mnemonic devices or distributed practice may help with this as well, but the specific issue here is related to the serial-position effect.
