Converting Fractions or Decimals into Percentages

Converting Fractions or Decimals into Percentages

(5)
This short lesson I use with KS2/KS3 students when looking at converting Fractions into Percentages or Decimals into Percentages. The lesson is accompanied with a Worksheet for students to answer in class or as a piece of homework. It demonstrates the style I use in class which is to work through examples in class with students pitching in ideas of how to answer the question along the way. Followed by the student then tackling questions on their own. My shop is full of lessons like this (however longer than this lesson). Hence a bought lesson will give you plenty of worked examples as board work with a worksheet to conclude, lasting the student beyond your lesson.

The set contains a worked set of examples in a PowerPoint. There is also a printable set of the examples which might be used in class where students copy the worked solutions as and when delivered by the teacher. The Powerpoint is then followed by a small workbook of seven questions which can easily by sent as an A5 booklet to most printers. The lesson should last up to 1 hour dependent on where you have the students copy out the examples in their entirety or print the prepopulated examples.

Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3 & Grade 4 Tests
sjcoopersjcooper

Grade 1, Grade 2, Grade 3 & Grade 4 Tests

(0)
The Grade 1 & 2 Tests are based on the type of questions that tend to appear at the beginning of examination papers at GCSE. You may disagree with my positioning of such topics, but I have created Tests papers for what I consider to be the other grades as well. The Grade 3 & 4 Tests are based on topics tested since 2017 and again you might think that one or two topics should be in the grade higher or lower. The aim of these tests is to first identify which topics are causing concern before fixing the issue and further tests are available to see if improvements have been made. Contents Five Grade 1 Tests Five Grade 2 Tests Two Grade 3 Tests. Two Grade 4 Tests. Two Grade 5 Tests.
