CMA Math - Discussion
-
Thank you parents who replied to my post. My child is doing 2 digits 8 numbers now. Itโs too tough even for adults. I also break up the cd homework into at least 2 sessions and each time we pause after 10 questions. Even that she can get very stressed up.
Glad to hear CMA is useful for school work. Thatโs a motivation for me to continue. When do you think is a good time to stop? 3 years? I donโt expect her to be an expert and will be satisfied if she can use the skills in math later on.
Cheers. -
My elder one started CMA only when he was in K2. That was \"quite old\" as many kids started when they were in N2 or K1. I did not regret sending him to CMA as it does helps him in mental calculation when he entered Primary school. Teachers commented he is fast and accurate. He shows model drawings and workings in problem sums and uses mental to check the answers. Not sure if it's the training from CMA, it does helps him to pick up concepts fast. For The CD, yes, I also let him do 20-30 questions per week. Now in P3, he's doing 3 digits 8 numbers. Very tough in my opinion. However, I also heard different views from other parents that abacus confused their kids in school and they withdrew their kids subsequently. I think it works differently for each child. Even for my younger one, I find she did not progress as fast as her brother but still, it helps her.

CMA 8th International Arithmetic Olympiad will be held on 7th June @ Republic Polytechinc. It's a very interesting annual event and there are participants from several countries. Do let your child participate and join in the fun.
