The child’s mind is on his fingers.

What do asynchronous counting on soroban, mental counting, and kinesiological exercises do? This motor technique promotes the development of interhemispheric connections, including the corpus callosum, synchronization of the work of the hemispheres occurs, new neural connections are formed, and mental activity improves.
The technique allows you to identify the hidden abilities of the child and expand the boundaries of the capabilities of his brain.
Certain facts.
Hippocrates and Aristotle used Kinesiological movements.
In 1981, American neuropsychologist and professor of psychobiology Roger Sperry received the Nobel Prize for research in the field of interhemispheric brain specialization. Thanks to his work, scientists have concluded that when a person uses technologies to harmonize his left and right brain areas in his training, the productivity and effectiveness of self-education increases.
The corpus callosum is a plexus of nerve fibers in the brain that connects the right and left hemispheres. The corpus callosum consists of 200-250 million nerve fibers.
The corpus callosum functions.
The obvious function is to connect the right and left hemispheres physically, since the corpus callosum is located deep in the longitudinal cerebral fissure between the hemispheres. Nerve fibers connect both symmetrical areas of different hemispheres, and non-symmetrical ones, as well as different areas of the same hemisphere.
Information communication between the hemispheres. The fibers of neurons (white matter) fan out in all directions, transmitting information, received by different areas of the hemispheres.
The hemispheres` Coordination. The corpus callosum provides not only the exchange of received information between the left hemisphere and the right one; it is also responsible for analyzing this information and responding appropriately.
