Question 2: What is Vedic math?
Answer:
Vedic math is an Indian (south Asian) math technique, which successfully teaches children to think mathematically and achieve math competency. Every number has certain properties and relationships with each other, that when understood allows for ease in problem solving and critical thinking in mathematics. Vedic math is also considered a mental system, so it gives us the opportunity to build a piece of the brain that is neglected in today's information age: memory and mental agility. Math Monkey is using the Vedic techniques to create excitement and curiosity among kids, so they will continue investigating math and will want to learn more and more.

  • Properties and Relationship of Numbers:

    Ten-Point-Circle → 1-9, 2-8, 3-7 etc etc adds up to 10.

    We emphasize greatly at an early stage as this is important to know as we teach more advanced techniques in class.

  • Example:
