This experimental research was conducted to assess the effectiveness of using the Singapore Bar Model Approach in improving the Math performance of the 60 Grade VI pupils of Loboc Central Elementary School of the S.Y. 2016-2017. It also aimed to assess the acceptability level of the experimental respondents towards the Singapore Bar Model Approach in terms learning of objectives, learning outcomes, learning experiences and learning activities. This study also sought to determine the performances of the following: pretest and posttest of the experimental group taught using the Singapore Bar Model Approach and the control group using the traditional method, the significant difference of the pretest-posttest of the control group, pretest-posttest of the experimental group and the posttests of both groups. Relevant data were gathered and subjected to statistical treatment, analyzed and interpreted through the use of weighted mean and t-test. This study concluded that both the traditional method and the Singapore Bar Model approach were effective in improving the academic performances of the respective respondents. The experimental group also indicated a positive attitude towards the use of Singapore Bar Model approach. It is recommended that the Singapore Bar Model may be used as an alternate teaching approach especially in topics where it is more appropriate.
