[quote=Anonymous]re the abacus -- Abstractly, the logic of what I was saying was teach things that enrich and will reinforce what s/he'll learn in school rather than anticipate/duplicate the curriculum. So the abacus, for example, makes more sense than number fact flashcards. Concretely, an abacus gives a kid a good sense of place value and of number patterns, as well as the ability to handle larger quantities and running totals easily. When my DC was a preschooler, we often used the abacus to keep score when we played games.[/quote]
