About this Simulation

This simulation helps learners understand fractions using the bar model method—a visual representation technique widely used in primary mathematics. Students can explore how numerators and denominators work together, manipulate fraction values, and develop deeper conceptual understanding through interactive exploration and guided problem-solving activities.

Learning objectives: Visualise and interpret fractions as parts of a whole using bar models | Solve fraction problems by identifying numerators, denominators, and division relationships | Apply bar model reasoning to develop flexible fraction understanding and mathematical reasoning skills
