In a solid, molecules do not have much room to move. They are very slow moving, which means that kinetic energy is low. In a liquid, molecules have more room to move. They are able to move faster than a solid, which means that kinetic energy is low.
Break down the table into smaller sections. Memories period by period or if you like by group (like halogens or noble gases). Just say the elements in order everyday 1-10 then when you get those 11-20 and continued.
