The Arietis Abacus & Vedic Maths Competition is around the corner, and for teachers, this is the perfect opportunity to help students showcase their skills with speed, accuracy, and confidence.
But how should teachers prepare their students for the December 7th competition? What must be revised? What should students practice daily? What mistakes must be avoided?
This blog gives you a simple, teacher-friendly checklist to ensure every student performs at their best, The Arietis Way.
1. Revise Level-Wise Concepts Thoroughly
Every student should be clear with the concepts of their current level.
Teachers should check:
All formulas and rules (Abacus / Vedic Maths)
Basic + advanced operations
Speed-writing practice
Proper finger and bead movement (for Abacus)
Correct application of sutras (for Vedic Maths)
Tip: Focus more on chapters where students usually make mistakes.
2. Daily Practice Routine for Students
Consistency = Confidence.
Give students a 15–20 minute practice routine at home every day:
Abacus students:
1 page of simple sums
1 page of mixed operations
1 speed test (3–5 minutes)
Vedic Maths students:
10 quick-solve sums
5 calculation-speed questions
1 sutra-based problem set
3. Conduct Weekly Mock Tests
Mock tests help the child understand:
Time management
Question patterns
Where they lose marks
How to build accuracy under pressure
Teacher checklist for mock tests:
Set question papers for each level
Follow the same time limit as competition
Evaluate speed + accuracy
Share feedback with parents
4. Correct Common Mistakes Early
Teachers should watch for:
Abacus common errors:
Wrong bead positioning
Inconsistent finger reach
Skipping steps due to speed
Misreading numbers
Vedic Maths common errors:
Applying wrong sutras
Confusing shortcuts
Missing place-value alignment
Rushing without verifying
Fixing mistakes early = smoother performance on competition day.
5. Boost Students’ Calculation Speed
Competition performance depends on both accuracy + speed.
Improve speed by:
Timed worksheets
Mental calculation warm-ups
Speed-writing drills
Fast 3-minute challenges
Reward students for beating their previous timings.
6. Guide Students on Presentation and Neatness
A clean sheet = fewer mistakes.
Teachers should train students to:
Write numbers clearly
Keep columns aligned
Double-check totals
Maintain spacing
Avoid overwriting
Neat writing directly impacts accuracy.
7. Encourage Confidence & Mindset Training
A confident student performs better.
Teachers can:
Appreciate small improvements
Share motivational reminders
Help students stay calm
Avoid comparing students
Encourage deep breathing before tests
Positive teachers create confident competitors.
8. Important Tips for Parents (Share This With Them)
Teachers can request parents to:
Give children a distraction-free study space
Ensure they sleep well before the competition
Avoid last-minute pressure
Encourage daily short practice sessions
Provide necessary stationery (sharpened pencils, erasers, etc.)
Parents + teachers together = winning team.
9. Competition-Day Preparation
Teachers should remind students to bring:
2 pencils
Eraser
Sharpener
Water bottle
Their ID / Roll number (if required)
And most importantly, a calm, ready-to-win mindset.
