A single bar split into two labeled parts, 15 and 9, with a brace above the full bar labeling the whole as 24, the core Singapore Math part-whole model.
Two stacked bars of different lengths comparing two quantities, with the longer bar extending past the shorter and the difference highlighted by a brace.
A part-whole bar model for addition where both parts, 23 and 18, are known and the whole is the unknown, marked with a question mark under the brace.
A part-whole bar model for subtraction where the whole bar is 40 and one known part is 14, leaving the remaining part marked with a question mark.
A bar model showing 5 equal units, each labeled 6, with a brace below the full bar labeling the total as 30, modeling 5 units of 6.
A clean blank Singapore Math bar model template with empty bars, blank label lines, and a brace, ready to fill in by hand for guided practice.
Start with one of these examples, then adapt the subject, labels, data, or layout for your own use.
A single bar split into two labeled parts, 15 and 9, with a brace above the full bar labeling the whole as 24, the core Singapore Math part-whole model.
Create a classic Singapore Math part-whole bar model: one horizontal bar partitioned into two segments, the left labeled 15 and the right labeled 9, with a brace above the full bar labeling the whole as 24. Bold readable numbers. White background.
Two stacked bars of different lengths comparing two quantities, with the longer bar extending past the shorter and the difference highlighted by a brace.
Create a classic Singapore Math comparison bar model: two horizontal bars stacked vertically and left-aligned, the top bar labeled Aisha at 36, the bottom bar labeled Ben and shorter, with a brace marking the difference of 8 where the top bar extends past the bottom bar. White background.
A part-whole bar model for addition where both parts, 23 and 18, are known and the whole is the unknown, marked with a question mark under the brace.
Create a classic Singapore Math addition bar model: one bar partitioned into two segments labeled 23 and 18, with a brace above the full bar labeled with a question mark for the unknown total. White background.
A part-whole bar model for subtraction where the whole bar is 40 and one known part is 14, leaving the remaining part marked with a question mark.
Create a classic Singapore Math subtraction bar model: one bar with a brace above it labeled 40 as the whole, partitioned into a left segment labeled 14 and a right segment labeled with a question mark for the unknown part. White background.
A bar model is a visual problem-solving method from Singapore Math that represents quantities as rectangular bars. Each bar, or section of a bar, stands for a number, and a brace labels the total or the difference. By drawing the known values and marking the unknown with a question mark, students can see the structure of a word problem before they choose an operation. Figviz uses AI to turn a plain description of a problem into a clean, accurately labeled bar model in seconds, so you can build worksheets and lesson visuals without drawing each bar by hand.
A bar model and a tape diagram are the same visual with different names. "Bar model" is the term used in Singapore Math and many UK and Commonwealth programs, where it is a central method for teaching word-problem reasoning. "Tape diagram" is the term used in US Common Core curricula such as Eureka Math and Engage NY. Both draw quantities as rectangular bars partitioned into labeled parts with braces for totals. If your curriculum uses the US term, the Figviz tape diagram generator produces the same models with US-style wording.
Yes. To generate a blank bar model template, describe the layout you want, for example "a blank part-whole bar with two empty segments and a brace, plus a second blank bar for comparison." Figviz draws the empty bars with blank label lines you can fill in by hand after printing, or annotate digitally. Blank templates are useful for guided practice, where students draw the bars themselves as they work through a problem, which builds stronger reasoning than copying a finished model.
