Lesson Plan

Percent

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Extend percent understandings to include percents less than one and greater than 100. A great lesson has pupils build upon their knowledge of percents from sixth grade. They convert between fractions, decimals, and percents that are less than 1% and greater than 100%.
