Percentages

Over the last two weeks, Year 6 have been learning about fractions, decimals and percentage in their maths lessons.

To begin with, the children had to become familiar with percentage, decimal and fraction equivalents. Knowing these equivalences allowed the children to compare and order them. The children then used their knowledge to calculate a range of percentages of numbers and amounts. After calculating percentages, the children were able to apply this to problem solving. This is one of the more difficult skills to master in Year 6 and the children worked extremely hard.
