Maybe you just didnt like the topic and you dont remember what you were tought

There is stuff I don't remember but nothing I remember differently from what accully occured.
I did learn about each layer of the planet's crust but without remembering the proper order/names we have dirt and rock all the way down. Not verry interesting to an 11 year old. Get down to the creamy center and we have lava, now that's interesting and actully sticks to mind. I allso had an intrest in Mytholigy at the time and that's when I first created Neptune naming him after the Roman God of Water as affiliated with his powers and myself. (and because learning about the Planets Roman names were just easier to spell than the Greek names.)
I'm not sure I can spell Posiedan right even today. I just guessed there so you tell me.
I allso remember the names of all the Planets in order.
Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto (sometimes Pluto then Neptune.)
Haveing more of an intrest in mytholigy than the planets themselfs it helped to remember the order of Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus.
Thoughs four as Planets were hard to remember but as Gods. Mars (Aries) is the son of Jupiter (Zeus) who it the son of Saturn (Kronos) who is the son of Uranus (Unknown Greek Name).
You should be familar with Saturn sence the Greek name of that God is allso the name of the Klingon home world.
