Frustrated that your students continue to struggle with word problems? You might think it's because they don't read carefully enough, but it could be that they don't know how to make sense of the situation. Singapore Strips (also called bar models or tape diagrams) are a visual tool that can help with those pesky word problems by promoting student engagement and understanding. Watch our new video showing how they can be used in an adult education classroom.
Inspired to give them a try? The next workshop on Singapore Strips is May 15 in Worcester. Sign up here!
