Building Early Math Skills Through Hands-On Learning at OrbRom Center Phnom Penh

Early exposure to math through concrete, hands-on experiences lays the foundation for lifelong numeracy skills. At OrbRom Center in Phnom Penh, we use innovative materials—like Montessori-inspired multiplication boards—to make learning math an engaging and confidence-building experience for young children.

By offering tactile learning opportunities, children don’t just memorize numbers; they understand what numbers mean and how they work.

Why Hands-On Math Matters

Young children learn best through play and physical interaction. Hands-on math activities:

• Strengthen understanding of concepts like addition, subtraction, and multiplication

• Develop problem-solving skills through exploration and trial and error

• Enhance memory and retention by linking physical actions to mathematical thinking

• Boost confidence by making abstract ideas concrete and approachable

Instead of seeing math as intimidating, children grow up viewing it as fun and achievable.

How OrbRom Center Supports Math Development

At OrbRom Center, our programs integrate hands-on learning through:

• Tactile tools like bead chains, counting boards, and math games

• Multi-sensory strategies for visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners

• Step-by-step skill building from counting to more complex operations

• Customized activities based on each child’s learning style and needs

This approach is especially effective for young learners, including those with special needs, providing a strong start in both school and life.

Setting a Strong Foundation for Lifelong Learning

When children experience success early in math, they are more likely to enjoy and excel in it later. Our specialized programs at OrbRom Center not only teach children how to work with numbers but also how to think critically, solve problems, and believe in their own abilities.
