This improves the coordination between left and right brains. In the abacus method of mental calculation, learners manipulate abacus beads in their heads to carry out a calculation.
These two work together to allow us to function as humans. It controls three dimensional sense, creativity and artistic senses. The right brain is referred to as the analog brain. It controls reading, writing, calculation and logical thinking. The left brain is also referred to as the digital brain. Human brain is basically divided into two parts left brain and right brain. He further states that, “We can activate the nerve cells by providing “stimuli” like moving fingers and talking aloud”. Toshio Hayashi, Director, Research Institute for Advanced Science and Technology (RIAST) is of the view that, starting abacus learning at a very young age, is useful in activating the brain of kids. It has now been proven as a complete brain development tool over last two decades. Abacus is con sidered to be the first calculator in Japan and has played a significant role in the educational development of the country. It was used in the ancient times for calculating numbers through basic arithmetic system. It is comprised of vertical rods with sliding beads and a fixed bar across the rods.
We use simple abacus study tutorials that help children learn while playing.Ībacus (also called Soroban in Japan) is a centuries old rectangular wooden instrument used to do calculations based on the decimal system. Mental abacus is a system for performing rapid and precise arithmetic by manipulating (bead movements) a mental image of an abacus. Students start with physical Abacus to learn numbers and mathematical operations and then progress to mental abacus. Our specially designed curriculum is tailored to enhance mental capabilities of a child using Abacus as one of the major tools. Abacus Math Institute (AMI) offers a complete mental development program for the kids between the age group of 4.5-15 years.
