Bar Modeling: for PARENTS

Last year, I created a presentation for parents about bar modeling.  Below are some slides with information about what bar models are, why they are useful in mathematics, the different types of bar models, sample problems, and ways to help your child be successful with bar models.  If you have any questions at all please don't hesitate to contact me.   We will be starting this chapter on Friday, October 28th.

For example, trying using 3 cakes and 1 cake.  

What would you do to solve the problem? 

Then replace with the greater numbers.
