Анотація: (English) The article is devoted to an experimental study aimed at identifying the features of the influence of mental arithmetic classes on the mental and creative abilities of children aged 7–9. The relevance of the topic is determined by the growing interest in accelerated development programs that allow developing in younger students not only computational skills, but also creative thinking, auditory and visual memory, and reaction speed. The novelty of the study lies in the integrated approach, which highlights the dynamics of key indicators (auditory memory, arithmetic speed, and creativity indicators) and analyzes their relationship with the systematic practice of counting on an abacus. The work describes intermediate and final results, analyzes parent questionnaires, and conducts interviews with teachers. Particular attention is paid to monitoring children's fatigue and ability to come up with innovative solutions. The work aims to illustrate how parallel activation of the left and right hemispheres through mental arithmetic techniques affects the formation of cognitive interest. To achieve the goal, a comparative method, source analysis, and statistical data processing were used. The publications of researchers indicating the positive effect of interhemispheric interaction were studied. The conclusion describes the results of the experiment and the prospects for introducing mental arithmetic into school practice. The article will be useful for teachers, psychologists, and parents looking for innovative ways to develop children's intellectual resources.
