Why bother to send them to abacus classes when the school allows P6 pupils to use calculators for PSLE? Anyway , the pupils have to show their working for problem sums. There is no short cut to that.

PSLE can only use calculator for Section C..Section A MCQ & Section B Structured Questions, still have to do own calcultions!!

If the child is very weak in calculations, will still lose out!
& it's detrimental to let a child, e.g. at P3, to know that calculators are allowed in PSLE, because they will then not be serious with learning time table etc..I know, because I'm facing such problems with my students!!

& I send my kids for abacus class not only to learn to do calculations, but also because I believe that it helps to train their mind..
My 5 year old girl was very 'blur' with numbers, now 2nd term with CMA, can see she can grasp concepts on numbers much more better already
Just my personal view

Hi All,


Anyone had any feedback on ABACUS MENTAL-ARITHMETIC IN ENGLISH (BASIC STAGE 1) conducted by the CC? Notice that the class size is about 10-20 & only Age 5 then can start!
