Bar-Modeling Orthogonality

When incorporating Singapore’s bar model method—the problem-solving visualization strategy to tackle word problems—at the elementary school level and its aim to develop students’ pre-algebraic thinking skills (before they are introduced to formal algebra) are not often partially achievable or necessarily correlated in practice.

Wallet-friendly Singapore math textbooks, workbooks, and teachers’ resources on their own doesn’t guarantee problem-solving mastery—bar-modeling orthogonality seems to be a constant in many traditional American classrooms, often because of teachers’ or parents’ faux perception that a foreign math curriculum or publication is harder (or even inferior) than their local inch-deep-mile-wide one.

Allahu snack bar

A lyric from the song "Peein' On The French" by Rucka Rucka Ali, made as a joke towards Syrians.

"The Arabs need to get out
Before the place blows up
Let's help the French out
Fill the air with drones
And watch 'em freak out
Syrians are fucking gay
Alalalalalalalala
Allahu snack bar"
