In Maths, the children in year 4 have been using the Singapore Bar Model to solve addition and subtraction problems. The model is a great visual for the children and has proven to provide the children with greater success when adding and subtracting.
At the end of the session both Caitlin Bowden (Sequoia Class) and Jack Peppitt (Hazel Class) agreed, "We really liked using the bar model as it was a good visual, it helped us to see which number has the biggest value and helped us solve problems that involve addition. Also, even though the chilli challenge Miss Cook set was really hard we worked together and used the model to solve the problem!"
