The popular school abacus is the easiest model for younger children to grasp. It provides an easy and effective introduction to the world of mathematics. With its high-quality wooden construction, it is both durable and environmentally friendly. Cheerful and attractive colors from non-toxic paint and varnish. A robust design resistant to wear and tear from young children.

For your child, the abacus will be a perfect tool for success.

Why use an abacus?

Mathematics is an abstract concept for children; studies have shown that children under 10 often struggle to visualize abstract concepts like mathematics. These difficulties can lead to a range of issues, from a mild aversion to mathematics to loss of confidence and even academic failures, even among the most capable children. Performing operations on an abacus will require your child to work through calculations and build mental models that will support them throughout their education and beyond into their adult life.

The abacus: an ancient object that remains relevant today.

Children who use the abacus during their education generally achieve significantly higher results in IQ assessments, surpassing even those who study with the most modern and experimental learning methods.

The abacus benefits users beyond mathematics.

Using the abacus helps children’s memory in a couple of ways. First, the child no longer needs to memorize individual solutions to arithmetic problems. Once the student learns the abacus, they will know how to solve any mathematical exercise. There is no need to remember specific solutions or calculation steps, as the method remains consistent. The second way the abacus supports memory is by allowing children to see clearly how they arrived at a result. By understanding how problems and numbers work, they can grasp how different calculations are performed. Once the student can solve an exercise, they no longer need to retain answers in short-term memory.

Students tend to remember problems rather than develop methods to solve them, leading to rote learning without true understanding, which is not always easily noticeable. This issue is easily resolved with an abacus, as it promotes intuitive and effective understanding of arithmetic.

From elementary school to high school, the abacus provides clear benefits for the student who uses it.
