Singapore’s Best Problem-Solving Math Strategies<br />

Meet Your Presenter<br />

Ricky Mikelman<br />

Singapore Math expert<br />

Ricky has spent 20 years in<br />

education, as a classroom<br />

teacher at every level from<br />

kindergarten to fifth grade and<br />

as a math coach in California<br />

and Texas. She has been<br />

active in curriculum writing<br />

and district-wide staff development, but teaching is her<br />

passion. In 2005, she was awarded the Los Angeles County<br />

“Excellence in Promoting Math Instruction Award.” She<br />

discovered Singapore Math while looking for methods to<br />

help her struggling students, and has become an enthusiastic<br />

supporter of Singapore Math for all students. Her passion<br />

for teaching shines through in her energetic and humorous<br />

presentations.<br />

The bigger the group, the bigger the benefits!<br />

Be sure to invite your colleagues to share in this exciting,<br />

information-filled day. You’ll not only create a strong<br />

support system, but you’ll also multiply the benefits<br />

this seminar has to offer. Plus, you’ll reduce the cost of<br />

attending this seminar with special tuition discounts for<br />

groups of 3+, 10+, and 20+ (learn more on page 7).<br />

Join Me on This Journey<br />

Embark with me on a mathematical<br />

journey to learn about exciting math<br />

strategies used in the small Southeast Asian<br />

nation of Singapore, which has been one<br />

of the world’s leaders in math achievement<br />

for over a decade.<br />

During this seminar, you’ll learn powerful<br />

strategies you can use to dramatically<br />

boost your students’ math achievement.<br />

You’ll examine and practice the modeldrawing<br />

approach Singaporean students<br />

use to solve word problems and to truly<br />

understand the math they are learning.<br />

And, most importantly, you’ll discover how<br />

Singapore Math strategies can easily be<br />

incorporated into your existing curriculum.<br />

<strong>Step</strong>-<strong>by</strong>-<strong>Step</strong> <strong>Model</strong> <strong>Drawing</strong> makes<br />

math more enjoyable and meaningful—for<br />

you and your students. With bar-model<br />

drawing, you can equip your students with<br />

the skills they need to meet the challenges<br />

of today’s testing. And, with greater math<br />

success, your students will gain the selfconfidence<br />

that is a prerequisite for higher<br />

achievement.<br />

I look forward to sharing with you<br />

my experiences using these unique<br />

math approaches. And, I can’t wait to<br />

demonstrate the ready-to-use tools<br />

that will help you put these remarkable<br />

strategies to work in your own classroom.<br />

Align your instruction<br />

to the new learning<br />

standards and<br />

transform your<br />

math instruction!<br />

Wouldn’t it be great if you could<br />

accelerate math achievement for<br />

every student in your classroom?<br />

Or if all students, of all skill levels, even<br />

inclusion students, were eager to take<br />

on greater mathematical challenges<br />

because they found math meaningful<br />

and enjoyable? With <strong>Step</strong>-<strong>by</strong>-<strong>Step</strong> <strong>Model</strong><br />

<strong>Drawing</strong>, you can make it happen—<br />

without changing your math curriculum!<br />

This extraordinary visual approach to<br />

problem solving is a breakthrough that<br />

has been proven to radically transform<br />

math instruction for the better. It provides<br />

learners with lifelong math skills and<br />

critical thinking skills, as well as math<br />

confidence and higher self-esteem. And,<br />

it’s fun for both teachers and students.<br />

<strong>Step</strong>-<strong>by</strong>-<strong>Step</strong> <strong>Model</strong> <strong>Drawing</strong><br />

Singapore’s Best Problem-Solving Math Strategies<br />

What You’ll Discover at This Seminar<br />

Enjoy the benefits of model drawing with<br />

your existing math curriculum.<br />

Discover how Singapore Math strategies can<br />

easily be implemented into your existing<br />

curriculum—actually strengthening your current<br />

curriculum without changing it! You’ll take<br />

home ready-to-use tools that will help you put<br />

these remarkable strategies to work in your own<br />

classroom. And, you’ll discover how this approach<br />

actually adds more teaching time to your day.<br />

With greater math success, your students<br />

will gain the self-confidence that is a<br />

prerequisite for higher achievement.<br />

Examine and practice the model-drawing<br />

approach Singaporean students use to solve word<br />

problems. Its step-<strong>by</strong>-step technique for reading,<br />

analyzing, and solving math problems supports<br />

stronger math reasoning skills. This approach<br />

builds a foundation for algebraic thinking and<br />

helps students truly understand the math they are<br />

learning, <strong>by</strong> empowering them to become critical<br />

thinkers.<br />

<strong>Step</strong>-<strong>by</strong>-<strong>Step</strong> <strong>Model</strong> <strong>Drawing</strong> is<br />

differentiated instruction at its<br />

best.<br />

See for yourself how this visual problemsolving<br />

strategy works with all kinds of<br />

learners, allowing you to offer your students<br />

opportunities to solve problems according to<br />

their best learning style. By equipping EVERY<br />

learner with the skills to confidently solve multistep<br />

word problems you’ll make math more<br />

engaging and fun for all your students—and<br />

yourself, too!<br />

Innovative,<br />

Use-Right-<br />

Away<br />

Strategies!<br />

<strong>Model</strong> drawing is a bridge that<br />

connects concrete thinking to<br />

abstract solutions.<br />

Most math curricula require the learning<br />

of abstract concepts, math symbols, and<br />

algorithmic notation. Learn how you can make<br />

math a visual and concrete experience to support<br />

better understanding. Using the bar modeling<br />

approach, you’ll help your students create<br />

pictures to represent values to solve most math<br />

problems they encounter.<br />

$<br />

Singapore’s model-drawing approach offers powerful problem-solving strategies.<br />

Discover how model drawing gives students the ability to illustrate their problem-solving skills <strong>by</strong> breaking the<br />

work into small parts. Learn how this approach teaches the language of math, helps students to reason through<br />

a problem more effectively, and improves your students’ understanding of math.<br />
