Description

Model Drawing is an essential method to solve Math Problem sums in Singapore primary schools.

Models involves using rectangular blocks to represent unknown numbers. This is unlike Algebra which uses letters instead.

Having a good grasp of model drawing will help your child to build a strong foundation to learn more advanced methods in later years.

Singapore schools are the first to develop this method and have topped global ranking in Mathematics. Its effectiveness in solving Math questions is proven and as a result, other countries have followed us in using model drawing too.

• Young children find concepts easier to learn by seeing pictures instead of letters
• Summarise the whole question in a clear diagram
• Able to tell the relationship between different items clearly
• Understand the flow of the question easily
• Able to deduce the solutions of the problem easily
• Trains visualisation and problem-solving skills

What is this Course About?

This course is a quick summary of all the model drawing strategies which your child must know in Primary 3 and 4.

You will learn the following:

• The Basics of Model Drawing
• The 3 Must-Know Types of Models (Part Whole, Comparison and Before-and-After Model)
• How to Summarise the question into one clear model
• How to Deduce the Solution from the model drawn

Under each type of Model, it is broken down into different concepts.

1. Part Whole Model

• Basic Concept
• Remainder Concept
• Repeated Identtity

2. Comparison Model

• Comparing 2 items
• Comparing 3 items
• Repeated Identity

3. Before and After Model

• Constant Part
• Transfer
• Everything Changed

At the end of each concept, there will be an assignment with questions on the same concept to ensure sufficient practice. Step by step solutions are provided too.
