Math-Sparks is an experimental learning program designed to give children an exposure to the beauty of numbers and make them comfortable working with numbers. In addition to this, children will be engaged in activities which will improve logical thinking and listening skills.
Children count using fingers. In our teaching methodology, children are trained to look at numbers as a function of 10’s or multiples of ten and work around it, thereby eliminating the need to use fingers.
Many children know to work with numbers only vertically. Learning to do operations horizontally is important in higher grades, as it will save time and will help children to improve their speed and avoid silly mistakes.
E.g.:
Vertical calculation
76 76 84 9
+8 +58 -7 *8
Horizontal Calculation
76 + 8 76 + 16 84 – 7 9*8
