🧩 What is Error Analysis?

It’s the ability to: detect a mistake, locate the source, understand why it happened, and correct it without emotional meltdown. This is a high‑level cognitive skill.

🎯 How Abacus Teaches Error Analysis

Visible steps: Bead positions show each calculation step. Retraceable: Child can undo and redo to find error. No shame: Mistakes are just bead movements, not permanent marks. Self‑correction: “This answer feels wrong — let me check.” Verbal analysis: “I think I added instead of subtracted.”
