The Bar Model Method is a key problem solving strategy consistently
taught to primary school
students in Singapore, a nation acknowledged as a global top
performer in mathematics based
on its performance in benchmarking studies such as the Trends in
International Mathematics
and Science Study (TIMSS).
The Bar Model Method is acknowledged as an effective problem
solving heuristic that enables students to understand, visualize
and represent conceptually complex problems and their solutions
simply and elegantly, and in doing so, further reinforces and
builds their conceptual and procedural knowledge, making them more
effective problem solvers. The visual representation of the problem
and the solution constructed by the student enables the teacher to
understand the student's thought process and allows them to correct
misconceptions immediately and appropriately.
This professional learning workbook introduces teachers to the
fundamentals of using the
Bar Model Method, providing the basis and process of understanding
different types of word
problems and deriving the bar models to solve them. For use with
Grades 1-6.
