1. WELCOME
3. Why Abacus Mental Arithmetic Speed & Accuracy in computation
Development of various other skills like concentration, Photographic Memory etc.,
Whole Brain development program
4. What do the children learn Calculation using the physical ABACUS
Calculation in Mental Arithmetic mode by image of Abacus
5. Different types of Abaci used in different places and times
6. THE ABACUS An ancient device used for counting
Though many ABACI are in vogue the Chinese ABACUS is the most popular one.
The ABACUS seen here is the modified and Improved version and not the traditional Chinese ABACUS
7. Structure of The ABACUS Upper Beads
BAR
Lower Beads
8. Value of The beads Value of Upper Bead = 5
Value of Lower Bead = 1
Only when the Beads touch the bar the abacus gets value
9. Abacus Vs Calculator Abstract numbers take the form of beads, so the child finds it easy to compute using abacus.
Child does the information processing, and hence knows how to arrive at the answer. Presses the buttons and gets the answer. Computation is done by the calculator
Calculator does the information processing, so Child does not know how answer is arrived
10. Abacus Vs Calculator When abacus is removed after some time, Child would have internalized the abacus to perform the computation by image of abacus
Increases self confidence
When calculator is removed after some time Child is totally at a loss.
Increases gadget dependency.
11. Abacus Vs Calculator Child acquires skills
Interaction of Right and Left Brains resulting in Whole brain development.
Child emerges as the winner
No skill attained
Brain utilization only takes place.
No gain achieved
12. Skill developed The main purpose of this program is to develop the skill of absorbing all information through :
13. Life Time skills Concentration
Imaging Skills / Visualization
Listening
Resulting in
Speed & Accuracy
Creativity
Self confidence
Self reliance

18. Who can learn abacus mental arithmetic
19. Target Age group 4 to 12 years since development and growth of nerve tissues happen between 4 to 12 years - after which it slows down.
Frequency of brain wave will increase gradually from Theta [relaxing stage] to Alpha level [relaxed but conscious.] as they grow older, the Beta level takes over.
20. Who will train Graduate in any Discipline (preferred ) or
Diploma in Montessori Education
