Modelling Tecnique

Many students in primary schools are confused with the words questions that deal with modelling.

In my experience of coaching primary level students , they need proper guidance and patience.

A few pointers for the parents or students to take note of when to use modelling to resolve the problem sums.

1) When the question involves comparison for more than 2 items, which uses phrases such as "more than" and/or "less than"
2) When only a relative comparison is provided such as "the length of ruler A is twice the length of ruler B"

In general, when the above two scenerio occurs and when mental calculation is almost impossible, you could use model effectively to resolve the problems.

Next article will deal with more on the solution for modelling technique
