Montessori education system is using a variety of flash cards. Flash card education has been known to effectively train the right brain.
The use of the flash card method has a proven track record for improving intelligence. The Dots Card application for iPhone and iPad is based on this method, which uses Doman/Shichida system, which has been used by a lot of families in the past for educating their children.
However, in the manual flash card method (not the iPhone and iPad application), there is a tendency for the dots to be covered by the fingers, and there are times that some cards are forgotten. In the Dots Card application, you don’t need to worry about these things because these are done automatically for you.
In the Dots Card application, not only figures are introduced but also its visual representation. Therefore, it is easy to learn the basic arithmetic operations.
It is most effective for a child to use the Dots Card application from ages 0-2, however, there is no age limit in starting because it makes the right brain active. This can also be used in rapid reading training.
Aside from understanding the basic numbers and figures, your child can also learn the basic arithmetic operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
In using the Dots Card application, you can choose between English and Japanese voices while displaying the cards, however, it is highly recommended that the parents use their own voices while displaying the cards.
When displaying the cards, you can change its speed. In addition, the order of the cards can be displayed randomly.
With the Dots Card application, your child will not only learn numbers and figures but will also develop an appreciation for learning.
It doesnt stop after school. The Dots and math application is also a good reference for kids. For the parents, providing a couple of math examples using the dots in the Dots and math application is one effective way to teach their child.
