Left and right brain must be coordinated in order to complete a series of advanced, complex cognitive and thinking activities of humans, which includes concentration, analysis, imagination, judgment, understanding and etc. When the brains are unable to process sensory information throughout the body simultaneously, it will appear a phenomenon of indigestion and result in body parts are unable to function effectively, and seriously would lead to language, learning and social obstacles.
Sensory Integration Training is a series of well-planned vertebral training activities. It helps the limbs and body send sensory information to the brain through central nerves and the brain will process, analyze the information and make adjustments in body coordination.
Thus, it can solve the children’s unfocused and inattentive problems that result in learning difficulties. For example: movement not agile, slow copying, have difficulty concentrating in class, poor memory, omission of words, copying words incorrectly, word reversals and etc.
Why can’t children concentrate on learning?
The ability of focusing depends on the maturity of visual focal length. If you want to improve your child's ability to focus, first of all, we must stabilize their visual focus. Through a lot of neck extension activities in the sensory integration, the seven cervical vertebrae in the neck will recover quickly and efficiently, meanwhile, the children’s concentration problems will be solved.
Body coordination is important for developing body wisdom
Left and right brain must be coordinated in order to complete a series of advanced, complex cognitive and thinking activities of humans, which includes concentration, analysis, imagination, judgment, understanding and etc. When the brains are unable to process sensory information throughout the body simultaneously, it will appear a phenomenon of indigestion and result in body parts are unable to function effectively, and seriously would lead to language, learning and social obstacles.
This phenomenon is called Sensory Integration Dysfunction. It can be divided into four parts: balanced integration, tactile integration, proprioceptive integration, vestibular integration (visual and auditory system).
The Chinese abacus has five-thousand-year cultural history. It is known as the fifth great invention and a valuable cultural heritage. According to the document, the first abacus was introduced to Japan from China in the 16th century.
After studying the tool for 400 years, Japan has improved and revolutionized the Soroban (Abacus) to what we use today. Simultaneously, abacus has also been introduced and become popular in Korea, India, America, and other Southern Asia countries. In a word, the invention of abacus contributed greatly to the development of culture, economy and scientific technology.
Many of us are aware of the fact that human ability and wisdom are determined by three factors: inheritance, environment and education. It is therefore vital to attach importance to a child's inborn factor, environment in his later years and the influence through education if he is to be nurtured and to become a highly intelligent person. It is also important not to be indifferent towards a child's early education which is the major channel to develop mental power.
On the growth of human's mental brain cells, many education researchers and physiologists are of the opinion that a child's brain cells will be 70% developed upon reaching the age of 3, and 100% developed from the age of 4 to 12. This speaks volumes for the importance of a child's early education and mental development.
Intelligent Mental-Arithmetic (IMA) adopts "Both-Hand Abacus Mental-Arithmetic" teaching method. By using the left and right hands to compute at the same time, it will produce stimulating effect for those who normally under utilize their right brain. For the schooling children, the method will be of great help to them in their ability and capability of calculation, response, concentration and memory, which in turn assist them to balance their brain power and strengthen the function of both their left and right brains.
The training programme will also provide regular hours to further strengthen the brain power of the children so as to enable them to master the multi-digit calculations without depending on the abacus.
The latest teaching method of the Mental-Arithmetic is taught by using "New Era Abacus" and the application of "Non- Formula", "Hidden Skill", "Flash Cards" and "Digital Practice", the learning speed of which is 6 times faster than the traditional one. With these innovative methods, children will be able to master the art of mental-arithmetic in a more relaxed environment without having to deal with any formula.
