Blank Bar Model Templates

Blank Bar Model Templates

(0)
Blank bar models which are a great way to** save time** in a lesson. Children can stick them in their book next to their working out to help them visualise the problem to see what the known and unknown qualities are. Print them out and cut them up so you have a little stock in your classroom. I have used these many a time for worded problems. The children’s books look neater than if they draw the bar themselves and it is such a time saver in a lesson! There are a number of different versions here – 3 different part part whole models and a comparison model. Some with brackets and others blank. There are 13 different versions and choices in this pack. There are also 4 posters that could be displayed on you Maths board - one set is coloured and one is black and white.

How to become a Maths Master Posters

(0)
Maths Mastery. Want your children to be Math Masters? These posters are sure to help you and your children on that journey! 6 posters, 5 objectives for a Math Master. I have used these posters as a permanent display on the side of my Math board. We refer to them in most lessons either as a part of the main learning or as a challenge or extension at the end of a learning task. After a while, I have found that some children refer to them independently and extend their learning without guidance from me. They have helped develop both Math Masters and independent learners over the years! There are double the amount of poster that you will need here – one half are for ‘Math Masters’, the other for ‘Maths Masters’ depending on where you are in the World. Please be mindful of our planet and only print what you need. Enjoy!

Balancing equations - primary lesson

(0)
Balancing equations. Visualisation. Quick lesson. Balancing equations comes up in most maths assessments. It can be an area that children fall down on but these are such easy marks to pick up! This is a mini lesson. It could be used as a teaching tool, revision or a starter to another lesson. It goes through what these calculations look like. We visualise each side of the equation on a scale and discuss how the scale needs to be balanced. There are a couple of independent activities which don’t require printing – this can all be done form the screen. The lesson ends with a challenge question. Mini assessments are done throughout with the answers being shown and children marking their work as they go. I hope that it is helpful to you and your children and saves you time.

How to use Bar Models - Tutorial

(0)
A beginner’s guide on how to use bar models to solve worded problems as a part of Maths Mastery. Bar modelling is a visualisation tool that is used in Maths as part of Maths Mastery. It is a hugely valuable skill to have and when it is taught properly and consistently it allows children to access more challenging worded problems and reasoning tasks. Once a bar model has been drawn, multiple facts can be drawn from it. These slides give an overview of types of models, questions that can be asked and facts that can be calculated. The following slide can be used in a number of different ways: • For your own information – maybe you are unsure about some of the models, what they look like or how they can be used. • For staff training – when I was Maths Lead I used these slides in different schools as part of teachers’ CPD. • For teaching or display – if you are teaching these models to children you might want to use some of the slides as part of your lesson or display. Whatever you choose to use them for, I hope they save you time and are helpful!
