In this full-day session, an expert in teaching Singapore maths will take a close look at the strand
for teaching number, numeration and operations from Year 1 to Year 6 in Singapore. Before lunch,
teachers will learn how:
• The curriculum in Singapore is designed
• The Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract approach is essential for its success
• Students’ mathematical thinking is developed

• Problem solving is central.
After lunch, teachers will learn how to use the Bar Model Method for teaching problem solving. This method is
a unique approach to representing number relationships through pictorial representation to make the problem
visual for the students. It has been proven to be one of the key strategies in raising the standard of mathematics
in primary schools in Singapore.
Examples from Scholastic’s PR1ME Mathematics will be used throughout this workshop.
Workshop Fee: $100.00 per person. Lunch not included.
Receive your attendance fee back in Rewards
Your school can receive the value of one workshop attendance fee back in Scholastic Rewards simply by purchasing a full class set of
PR1ME. This offer closes November 15, 2014. For every class set purchased, one attending teacher’s fee will be given back to the school
in Rewards (eg. 6 teachers attend, at $100 each, and 5 class sets are purchased before November 15, $500 in Rewards will be credited to
your school).
