About Abacus
The Abacus helps your children to develop speed and accuracy in solving math problems by using simple methods. An Abacus student can most likely get the correct answer 4 to 5 times faster than a calculator and besides that, you can’t just go around carrying a calculator at all times. An abacus is a calculating instrument that uses beads that slide along a series of wires or rods set in a frame to represent the decimal places. It is the ancestor of the modern digital calculator. The standard abacus can be used to perform addition, subtraction, division and multiplication; the abacus can also be used to extract square-roots and cubic roots. The beads are manipulated with either the index finger or the thumb of one hand.
