Bar Model Method Emphasis is placed on teaching pupils to
use the bar model method to solve word
problems that include part- whole, comparison
and change situations.
• Primary 1 – Introduction to Part & Whole and Comparison models
• Primary 2 – Multiplication & Division
• Primary 3 to 6 – More advanced techniques and strategies in the method are taught

Part-whole model …
- Shows the various parts which make up a whole
savings
There are 26 girls and 11 boys in a class. What is the total number of pupils in the class?
26 + 11 = 37

There are 37 pupils in the class.
Comparison model …
Mary has 5 pencils.
June has 2 more pencils than Mary.
How many pencils does June have?

Types of Assessments
(requires pupils to create answers which demonstrate their knowledge or skills)
2nd way
3rd way
1st way
My Pals Are Here Topical Test:• Topical test is conducted to
identify the pupil’s learning gaps.
• Teachers to correct misconceptions or wrong assumptions.
Programmes and Activities
• Maths Games@ Recess
• Maths Quiz
• Drama in Maths
• Learning Centres
• HGS e-Learning portal: MC Online:
http://www.mconline.sg
Expectations
• Listen and participate actively
• Be on task
• Be prepared
- bring the necessary books
- handing in work on time
• Ask when in doubt
• Take pride in her work
- check through, neat handwriting
• Persevere – Keep Trying and Don’t Give Up
Marking Annotation• Teachers will use these annotation when
marking the pupils’ work.
1) CC – careless calculation
Example: 234 + 456 = 680 x CC
2) ME – missing equation
Example :
Huiping has 86 stickers. Aisha has 49 fewer stickers than Huiping. How many stickers does Aisha have?
ME ( missing equation) 86 -49=37
Aisha has 37 stickers.
How Parents can Help• Work and communicate closely with your
child’s Maths Teacher.
• Follow up on homework – ask questions that
guide without telling them the answer.
• Train your child to show proper and detailed working
steps.
• Train your child to check for accuracy.
• Relate Math concepts to daily life examples
• Play mathematical games / puzzles.
• Provide a positive environment – encourage
and praise your child’s effort.
