Using bar models in word problems can help children to visualise the problem, decide which operation to use (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division), and then how to solve the problem.
This quick and easy-to-follow guide on how to get started with the bar model explains briefly how it works and includes practical examples to use with children in your school.
Simply check it out (don't worry, you won't be charged) and you can easily access it from your My Rising Stars dashboard and share with colleagues in your school.
