And I loved it.

chance to try it out with my kiddos.
I "almost" forgot about it!
ALMOST.

"What is Bar Modeling?", asks a follower.
Well.
Bar Modeling is similar to the "Draw A Picture to Solve" strategy, yet it is always a variation of the same picture (bars of some sort) to solve problems using different operations. Bar Modeling is a method for students to transfer information in a problem to a visual, that they can solve.
My students struggle with breaking apart word problem,
and trying to figure out what strategies to do.
So this was perfect.
We walked through a problem today in class.
