What is Abacus?
WThe Abacus is a tool used in China that not just performs the function of a calculator but also trains and harnesses the potential of the human brain in the process. The Abacus when used over a period of time with practice becomes a mental calculator for children. Over a period of time the child becomes a specialist in numerical and arithmetical skills.
The Abacus system of learning involves the harnessing of the left hemisphere of the brain that is logical and the right hemisphere of the brain that is intuitive. This helps greatly in the cognitive skills of a child and also unlocks hidden talent that may otherwise go unnoticed. Gradually the Abacus tool is withdrawn and the child relies solely on calculating functions like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division mentally
