Maths – LO: percentages

Today we’re diverging from decimals to percentages.

Once you’ve finished, click here to download a plan for a story about travelling to a new world, click here to download a plan for a 500 word dilemma (a problem) story or click here to download a more general plan where you can decide every aspect.

Tomorrow, we will begin to actually write our story so just focus on the planning today – using the website and writing your plan should take around 40 minutes.
