Percentages Bundle

By the end of these three lessons your child can find any percentage of an amount, increase or decrease it, work out one number as a percentage of another, and find the original amount after a percentage change. Percentages come up on almost every 11+ and GCSE Foundation paper, in sale prices, test scores, discounts and comparisons, and the three lessons teach the skills in the order they build on each other.

What's included:

• Percentages of Amounts - 5 units (The Facts You Know, Repeat a Tenth, Half a Tenth and Steps of 1%, Tens and Ones, Whole Minus a Part), 90 questions
• Percentage Increase, Decrease and Change - 5 units (Increase an Amount, Decrease an Amount, One Amount as a Percentage of Another, Multi-Step Percentages, Percentage Change), 90 questions
• Reverse Percentages - 5 units (Round Percentages, Above 100% and Non-Round Percentages, Increased and Decreased Amounts, Successive Changes, Word Problems), 82 questions

Your child works through each lesson on a laptop or computer, which is the screen size it is built for. They play with the tool at the start of a unit, click to reveal each line of a worked example, set the practice questions out on paper, then click to check their own answer.

How it's structured:

• Each of the 15 units opens with a worked example your child clicks through one line at a time, then practice questions graded from easy up to the hardest thing that unit asks for
• 262 questions in total across the 3 lessons, every one with a click-to-reveal answer and a reveal-all option, and some question banks have a New Questions button that deals a fresh set whenever you want more
• Every lesson closes with its own 20 question mixed challenge pulling from all its units, with the questions deliberately unlabelled so your child has to work out what is being asked before they start

8 hands-on tools a printed worksheet cannot give you. A hundred square your child shades themselves, so a percentage and a fraction of 100 become the same picture. A ladder that starts at 100% and halves and divides its way down to the percentage the question actually asks for. A builder where your child picks the steps that add up to a percentage like 35%. A bar that walks through an increase or a decrease one step at a time, so the change and the new amount stay separate in their head. A sorter that reads a statement and asks which job it is giving you before any calculating starts. A tool for deciding which number goes on the bottom when a question asks what percentage one amount is of another. A scaler that takes a known percentage back up to 100%, so the original amount appears. And a shortcut finder that breaks an awkward percentage like 37% into the chunks that divide in cleanly.

Use this if:

• Your child is in Year 4 to Year 11 and percentage questions still need working out from scratch each time
• You are preparing for the 11+ or GCSE Foundation, where percentages of amounts, increases, decreases and reverse percentage questions all appear regularly
• Your child can find 10% of a number but gets stuck the moment a question asks for the original price before a sale
• You want a resource your child can check their own work with, not one more thing on your to-do list
