Year 5 objective: "recognise the per cent symbol (%) and understand that per cent relates to ‘number of parts per 100’, and write percentages as a fraction with denominator 100, and as a decimal fraction"
This modelling assumes pupils have a very basic understanding of what percentages are (as long as they have been taught that '% means out of 100', they should be fine). There is an initial AFL task using a Minecraft enemy's face and then they are shown how to find 30% of 70 using images from the game.
Your mileage may vary, but this was successful in engaging a class who have a habit of switching off whenever the word 'percentage' is mentioned!
