TAPE DIAGRAMS MATH WORKSHEETS, TASK CARDS, AND POSTERS
 
Tape diagrams or bar models are an excellent way to solve multiplication and division word problems! This math resource will help your students learn to analyze word problems, identify the operation needed, identify the question, use tape diagrams to model and solve, and interpret tape diagrams to write their own word problems.
 
Includes:
 
POSTERS
Set of teaching posters to guide students in how to use tape diagrams
 
TASK CARDS
Includes 10 problem cards, 10 tape diagram cards, and 10 equation cards. These can be used in a variety of ways. Have students match each problem with the correct tape diagram model and equations. Provide just the story problems and have students solve on their own. Provide just the tape diagram cards and have students create equations and/or story problems to go with them.
 
WORKSHEETS
These can be used for practice or assessment. The first two worksheets give students word problems to solve by filling in the information on blank tape diagrams. The second set of worksheets has partially filled-in tape diagrams. Students must create a word problem to go with each. Requires higher-level thinking.
 
Once your students learn to use tape diagrams, you'll see them become much more proficient at problem solving. You can learn more about this math strategy here: Using Tape Diagrams (Bar Models) to Problem Solve
