The abacus is a traditional counting tool that has been used for centuries to perform basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. At MindMantra Classes, we utilize the abacus to help students develop a clear understanding of mathematical concepts by visualizing numbers and performing calculations through the movement of beads on rods.

In our program, children learn to use their fingers to move the beads, making math more interactive and engaging. Over time, they transition to performing calculations mentally by imagining the bead movements, significantly enhancing their mental math abilities.

The abacus at MindMantra Classes is not just a tool for improving math skills, but also for developing essential cognitive abilities like concentration, memory, and logical thinking, providing a comprehensive foundation in math for young learners.

The soroban abacus is widely used as an effective educational tool, particularly for lower-grade students, to help them grasp basic number systems in the following ways:

• The abacus has a simple structure that mirrors the decimal system, making it easy for children to grasp base-ten concepts and place value.
• It allows them to understand the calculation process step by step.
• Using this hands-on tool encourages children to develop an active interest in learning math.
• Regular practice with the abacus also enhances their anzan ability—performing mental calculations by visualizing the beads—boosting their overall math skills and cognitive development.
