Why learn Abacus?
Abacus is a Brain development programme for the children of age group 4 – 12 years using the magical tool Abacus. Abacus is basically a Chinese tool which develops the mathematical and brain skills of the children. Let us see in detail the benefits of the course.
Concentration
Kids in general lack concentration. Rather we can say they have lots of distraction in the modern day world. Unless they develop the concentration in whatever they do it is difficult to succeed in life. Abacus when learnt systematically helps the children to improve the concentration in whatever work they do.
Speed and accuracy
When a child is able to concentrate automatically they are able to pick up the speed as well as perfection in their day today activities say their studies or any other skill they learn.
Creativity
All children are creative in their own ways in solving problems. For example if we take Maths there are different ways of solving one given problem but at the end if we see there is only one answer. Abacus helps the children to improve the logical analytical thinking and creativity.
Confidence
Once children are able to solve any problem on their own with good speed and accuracy they feel very confident. Abacus helps the children to become confident.
Listening skills
In abacus programme children do lots of activities say Speed writing, Random calling, flash cards Oral sums etc. Oral sums and random calling improves the listening skills of the children which is a must in the class room or any other activity they participate. In fact abacus children normally don’t require any extra help in learning things since the listening skills are excellent and developed fully.
Memory
Abacus helps the children to improve their memory and recalling whatever they have learnt. Normally numbers cannot be retained for a long time in our brains. The beauty of abacus is children can recall the numbers before and after when they miss something in the class room.
Conclusion
At the end it is very clear that Abacus learning is a Skill Development or Brain Development Programme for children which helps them in improving the concentration, speed and accuracy, confidence, listening skills memory etc.
