About This Lesson
Whole class activity with whiteboards. Each slide asks children to compare different percentages and choose which they would prefer.Generally children when working with percentages will always choose the largest answer but in this activity they will need to read the questions carefully and explain their choice of the larger or smaller percentage found - e.g. Would you prefer to be chased by 12% of 120 mosquitoes or 5% of 45 mosquitoes?
