What Is Left Brain - Right Brain Theory?

Have you ever heard people say that they tend to be more of a right-brain or left-brain thinker? 

According to the theory of left-brain or right-brain dominance, each side of the brain controls different types of thinking.
People who identify as left-brain thinkers feel that they have strong math and logic skills. Those who profess to be right-brain thinkers, on the other hand, feel that their talents are more on the creative side of things. A person who is "left-brained" is often said to be more logical, analytical, and objective. A person who is "right-brained" is said to be more intuitive, thoughtful, and subjective.

Today, neuroscientists know that the two sides of the brain collaborate to perform a broad variety of tasks. In fact, recent research has shown that abilities in subjects such as math are strongest when both halves of the brain work together.

The UCMAS Abacus program is designed to stimulate both sides of the brain enhancing mathematical ability in children between the ages of 6 and 14.

Enrol your child in the UCMAS Mental Arithmetic program today and watch your child burgeon into a math-whizz and radiant thinker.

Understanding UCMAS Abacus

It's been nearly a month since the kids have been  back to school. With the children settling into their new routines, most parents are now prepping to sign up kids for after-school activities. UCMAS Abacus remains a popular choice for many parents but there are some who are still not sure of the benefits the program yields. Go through our list of FAQs to cut the confusion and know why UCMAS is the right choice for every child. 1. I do not see the value of mental arithmetic; children are allowed to use calculators now. UCMAS is not just a math program. It is a mental development program that uses mental arithmetic as a tool. There may be some value for kids doing arithmetic that is fast and accurate but the mental abilities and skills learnt at UCMAS are the ultimate goal and can be applied to almost every aspect of child's life, academic or otherwise. 2. My child is really smart when it comes to math, does s/he still need UCMAS? As we've just s...

Understanding Critical Thinking!

Critical thinking is a term that we hear a lot, but many people don't really stop to think about what it means or how to use it. Critical thinking is not a matter of simply accumulating information. A person with a good memory and who knows a lot of facts is not necessarily good at critical thinking. Critical thinking should also not be confused with being argumentative or being critical of other people. Although critical thinking skills can be used in exposing fallacies and bad reasoning, critical thinking can also play an important role in cooperative reasoning and constructive tasks. What exactly is critical thinking? Critical thinking means making reasoned judgments that are logical and well thought out. It is a way of thinking in which you don't simply accept all arguments and conclusions you are exposed to but rather have an attitude involving questioning such arguments and conclusions. It requires wanting to see what evidence is involved to support a particular argumen...

Playing Board Games is Good for Your Brain!

Did you know playing board games on a frequent basis is really good for you? Games don't need to be overtly academic to be educational, however. Just by virtue of playing them, board games can teach important social skills, such as communicating verbally, sharing, taking turns, and enjoying interaction with others. Board games can foster the ability to focus, and lengthen your child's attention span by encouraging the completion of an exciting, enjoyable game. Even simple board games like Snakes and Ladders offer meta-messages and life skills: Your luck can change in an instant — for the better or for the worse. The message inherent in board games is: Never give up. Just when you feel despondent, you might hit the jackpot and ascend up high, if you stay in the game for just a few more moves. Check out all the benefits below! 1. Taking Turns This is one of the first things you learn about playing games, that there are times when you get to act, and times when you wai...
