This powerpoint teaches learners how to calculate simple and then more complex percentages of amounts. It contains finisher questions for both which can be used as a means of formative assessment. It also contains a set of three questions sets which are differentiated by stars to challenge all learners.

A lesson all ready to go. The objective for pupils is to use their knowledge of equivalent fractions to develop an understanding of the links between percentages and decimals. Stater activity checks understanding of comparing two fractions through equivalent fractions. The first main part of the lesson uses knowledge of equivalent fractions to convert fractions to decimals and percentages by converting to an equivalent fraction out of 100. Pupils then learn to convert fractions to decimals and percentages through using short division, introducing recurring decimals. Pupils then practice applying their new knowledge to ordering a mixture of fractions, decimals and percentages. And finally pupils review their learning through Fractions decimals and percentages BINGO. Feedback Appreciated

Suitable for both Key stage 3 and 4. This worksheet is designed to help pupils revise percentages of amounts. The worksheet is fully differentiated (mild, medium spicy, hot and challenge) allowing pupils to work at different levels simultaneously. The challenge section asks pupils to apply their knowledge on percentages of amounts to answer a GCSE worded question. The worksheet also features a section for pupils to self-assess their understanding and set a target for next lesson. Answers included which can be projected directly onto the smart board.

The full set consists of 27 worksheets which guide the pupil slowly through the process of understanding what a percentage is and then using their knowledge to calculate percentages. This resource has been used very successfully in a PRU for KS3 pupils who needed to go back to basics.

Fun starter! Practise percents of quantities or amounts with this treasure hunt, scavenger hunt or relay type activity. It’s an active printable mental maths team game, with differentiation, ideal as a whole class starter or plenary at KS2 (Year 5 / Year 6) and early KS3 (Year 7), especially when focusing on percentages of amounts / percents of a number. It can be played multiple times in a lesson or across several lessons as groups can use different card sets each time. Teams complete a treasure hunt-type chain of percentages calculations, followed by a ‘Find the Target Number’ mental maths challenge, using a mixture of the four operations. There are 54 double-sided cards, forming sets of 6 cards for 9 teams. A key feature is the chance to involve lower ability pupils in a fun whole class activity to give them a boost of confidence without it being obvious their calculations are less challenging (3 of the sets are at an easier level). Full instructions for teacher and pupils is included, along with solutions. I have a collection of these Grab the Answers games, each one focusing on a different maths concepts. Click on the BUNDLE to explore more. Students collaborate on a treasure hunt type maths trail and when they’ve collected all 5 answers, they are given a target, which they must make using 3 given numbers. You can print and laminate the cards in batches of 3 sets, so if you don’t require them all, you needn’t print them. The cards should be printed double-sided (they’ve been laid out to facilitate this). I print by selecting the ‘2-Sided Short Edge (Top)’ option. However, if you can only print one-sided, print all the even-numbered pages, replace the paper, and print the odd-numbered pages on the back. Give each team their ‘Start’ card. Spread out all other cards, answer side up. You may wish to remove cards from any set not being used, although this is not necessary. On your signal, teams turn over their Start card and complete the calculation. Each team sends one person to collect the correct answer card, on the other side of which will be their next question and a letter to confirm which team it belongs to. Ensure teams immediately replace any cards not marked with their letter. The process continues until the team have answered all five calculations. On the other side of the final answer card will be a target number, which teams must make, using the numbers printed in boxes in the bottom right corner of 3 of their cards. Use all 3 numbers and only once each, using any of the 4 operations. The first to make their target number wins! One possible answer for each of the target challenges is printed on the solution cards. Please visit my store for many fun, time-saving activities: FullShelf Resources

1. 1%, 10%, 25% and 50% of amounts 2. 5% and 20% of amounts 3. Multiples of 5% of amounts 4. Problem solving questions included 5. Examples include a visual approach to help pupils fully understand percentages of amounts (bar model) ***Worksheet Free***

It explains what a percentage is, how to convert a percentage to a fraction and a decimal and how to find simple percentages of amounts.

Simple worksheet that can be used to introduce the topic

Demonstrating how 10% can be used to find 20%, 30% etc Also how finding a percentage of 100 can be used to find the same percentage of 200, 300 etc

A percentage mind map that supports pupils to see the connections between different percentages. Ideal if laminated and used regularly to support pupils recall. One has hints that can be used. The other is blank. Give children ‘the whole’ and ask them to work out the other amounts. You could also explore links that are not on the map e.g. 20% + 5% = 25%

This is a lesson that I used to teach my year 6 class about converting between fraction, decimal and percentage equivalents . The lesson starts off with a starter on multiplying and dividing by 100. It then offers opportunities for teacher modelling. Next, there are slides with differentiated practice questions for the class to do on their whiteboards. The answers are on the next slides so that you can quickly check their work. On the penultimate slide, there is the Learning Objective and a challenge to complete once they’ve finished their work. Worksheets are differentiated for LAs, MAs, HAs and HHAs. I have included the answers for worksheets too to make teacher marking easier or for you to give to your class to mark their own work!
