The AL Abacus, when used in conjunction with the RightStart™ Mathematics program, is now available on both iPad and iPhone. This abacus distinguishes itself from traditional Japanese and Chinese abaci by focusing on teaching rather than performing calculations, making it especially suitable for visual learners.
This dual-sided abacus is uniquely designed to group quantities in fives and tens for easy recognition, with the reverse side emphasizing the concept of trading up to the thousands place.
Its method enhances learning by promoting:
- Visualization of quantities
- Reduction of reliance on counting
- Development of mental arithmetic strategies
Individuals using the AL Abacus tend to develop a more profound grasp of fundamental mathematical concepts and typically require less time to achieve proficiency in arithmetic. The abacus effectively aids in comprehension without fostering dependency, as evidenced by cases such as that of Stan, a 5-year-old who confidently solved a calculation and credited his mental visualization facilitated by the abacus.
This educational tool also includes links to sample lessons covering addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, alongside comprehensive usage instructions. Additionally, it offers compatibility with a VGA adaptor for optimized classroom settings.
