   A bar model used to solve an addition problem. This pictorial approach is typically used as a problem-solving tool in Singapore math. Singapore math teaches students mathematical concepts in a three-step learning process: concrete, pictorial, and abstract. [3] This learning process was based on the work of an American psychologist, Jerome Bruner.

   In Canada, math contest clubs for elementary school children teach "questions typical of the Math Kangaroo contest", starting with those with a visual component and helping to develop logic and spatial reasoning. [9] Students in Pakistan took part for the first time in 2005, the numbers increasing each year since. [10]

6. Multiple representations (mathematics education) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_representations...

   The use of multiple representations supports and requires tasks that involve decision-making and other problem-solving skills. [2] [3] [4] The choice of which representation to use, the task of making representations given other representations, and the understanding of how changes in one representation affect others are examples of such mathematically sophisticated activities.

7. How to Solve It - Wikipedia

   First, you have to understand the problem. [2] After understanding, make a plan. [3] Carry out the plan. [4] Look back on your work. [5] How could it be better? If this technique fails, Pólya advises: [6] "If you cannot solve the proposed problem, try to solve first some related problem. Could you imagine a more accessible related problem?"
