A model is like a recipe for making cookies. When you want to bake cookies, you need to know how much flour, sugar, and chocolate chips to use. A model helps us know what ingredients we need and how much of each to use to get the perfect cookies every time. Just like a recipe, a model gives us instructions on how to do something.
Think of a model as a blueprint for building a house. Before you build a house, you need to know where each room will go, how tall the walls should be, and what materials to use. A model helps builders understand what the house will look like and how to put it together.
Imagine a model as a map. When you want to go somewhere, a map shows you the best way to get there. It tells you which roads to take and where to turn. A model helps us find the best way to solve a problem or understand something new, guiding us step by step.
