UCMAS Canada Inc. recently conducted its 7th Canadian UCMAS Abacus & Mental Math Competition on April 22, 2012 atht e International Centre in Mississauga, ON. This will be followed by the Awards Ceremony on April 27, 2012. About 1,700 UCMAS Mental Math students aged 4 to 13 participated in the competition, the largest competition of its kind in Canada.
During the competition, the UCMAS students are given eight minutes to solve approx. 200 arithmetic questions, using only their Abacus or mental math. The examination showcases more than prowess in Math – it’s a testament to the skills the students develop in the UCMAS program such as visual memory, focus, creativity and visualization, all of which leads to greater proficiency in Math and enhances overall academic achievement.
This year, approximately 700 prizes will be awarded to the top students across each UCMAS level. The top winners at the competition in Canada will then be invited to participate at the International UCMAS Competition which will take place in Malaysia in November 2012.
