What next?
A Abacus Program
Our children have vast potential of energy and brain power. But most of them do not know how to use their mind in the right way and thus fail to realize their hidden brain powers.
Nowadays the students are using an Electronic Calculator even to carry out simple arithmetic operations because they are not prepared to use their brain properly. The same is noticed in all the other subjects also. If this goes on, they have to be reliant on others even to accomplish their basic learning needs.
QUALITIES NEEDED BY OUR NEW GENERATION
The new generation needs to highlight the following Qualities or characters: ·
- Determination
- Analytical Power
- Creativity
- Listening & Understanding
- Concentration
- Speed & Accuracy
- Memory Power
When all the above qualities are developed, the student will become vivid, independent, intelligent, autonomous, consistent, capable and persistent.
Functions of Brain
Normally, our brain has two hemispheres, the LEFT brain and the RIGHT brain. About 95% of our children use only the LEFT brain. But our RIGHT BRAIN is the seat and origin of intelligence, unfortunately not used by our children.
LEFT brain – Analyzing Information, Concerning Languages & Sound.
RIGHT brain – Integrating Information, Thinking & Creativity
