This research work is about mental calculation and its positive contribution to the learning of mathematics since it has become relevant as well as very practical and easy to apply in the classroom. Our starting point is the fact that mathematics is key to the intellectual development of students because it shows up in diverse situations and daily activities. That is the reason why together with the area of communication, mathematics is one of the most significant and appreciated areas of the educational curriculum. As educators, our main duty should be fostering the development of competencies for life; and mathematical competencies are an example of this, especially through problem solving, students can practice to face, not only academic challenges, but also those that will be useful in different aspects of their lives. Basing on different research, we are trying to reinforce the proposal of promoting mental calculation in the classroom, so that there is a healthy environment to raise interest and active participation of the students. Finally, it is important to highlight the role that mental calculation has in the development of the mathematical competence since it allows the learner to manage and/or create strategies that help solve situations in less time, but mainly, with efficiency. All the students should incorporate the use of strategies of mental calculation as a daily activity that will foster cognitive as well as socio emotional development.
