Eldest continues #soroban (Japanese abacus) 🧮 classes, including mental arithmetic #FlashAnzan techniques & regular drill practice on the computer…
This is currently a crazy physical and mental exercise where they run away from the computer, read the numbers to tally at a distance, then run back and type in answer 🤣
Apparently this helps maintain a small mental model in their (imaginary) field of view, leaving room for larger numbers in future. With some physical exercise as a bonus?

It seems children’s school pencil cases now come with integrated little calculators in Japan - guess they don’t often have no calculator exams or tests? At least with #FlashAnzan techniques the #soroban is in your own head 🧮🧠
