1 hour per week. Each Week after the first Class is over, the Practice Worksheets will be shared for the week. Kids are expected to do their practice every day without fail, for 4 weeks to see transformational results in their mental math abilities. The Practice worksheets will have these 3 sections. 1) Daily Practice Tracker (Generally the First tab of the worksheet) The Practice Tracker has got 2 sections. - First one for the Minute routines (3 Brain Exercises) which will be taught in the class. (10 min max) - Second one for the Techniques taught in the class. (10 min max) The parents should help set up specific time in the day for the kids to do the 10 min Minute Routines and 10 min Technique Practice. Once completed, the student should check mark the boxes against the specific day of practice. The parents should ensure that kids are checking the box only if they have practiced. 2) Reference Material tabs These are reference material in case the student need to refer them during or before the practice. 3) Practice Worksheets These are where the student need to practice what they have learnt in the class and note their Time & Accuracy. - "Warm up" Column calculations might not be timed. - "Timed Column" Calculations need to timed by using a stop watch and checked for accuracy by the parent. We'll need a parents' email ID to share the Practice worksheet for their kids. These are Google Spreadsheets which will be editable by the student / parent.Assessment
The Practice Worksheets furnished to students are equipped with self-assessment guidelines, enabling them to autonomously evaluate their grasp of each mental math concept introduced in class. This empowers students with the ability to gauge their own progress and understanding, fostering a sense of ownership and accountability in their learning journey.Class Experience
