About this activity

What your child practises

Skills: Percentages of amounts (level 2).

Applying a method step by step and checking the answer – the skills secondary-school maths tests are built on.

What’s included

  • 15 questions
  • An answer key you can print with the sheet or on its own
  • An on-screen version with instant marking and stars

Age and school year

Made for ages 11–18. That’s Grade 6–12 in the US, Year 7–13 in England, Primary 6 – SS 3 in Nigeria and Class 6–12 in India.

How to use it

  • Print it at home or school – it fits a standard A4 or US Letter page.
  • Print the answer key too, so marking takes seconds.
  • Play it on screen: answers are marked instantly and children earn stars.
  • Write on it on a tablet or touchscreen with a finger or stylus – no printer needed.

Tips for parents and teachers

  1. Redo three of the questions a week later: spaced recall is one of the surest ways to make methods stick.
  2. Play it on screen for instant feedback, then print a fresh version as a timed, calculator-free check.
  3. Use a fresh printed copy as a short timed test before an exam to practise working under pressure.
