Percentage of a Quantity LET’S BUILD
Description
Visit the robot factory where creativity takes centre stage! In this engaging digital game, students explore a series of colourful image sets to select three that meet the target criteria. Each correct set earns them a new robot part, bringing them one step closer to completing their unique robot creation. The excitement builds as they work to assemble their final masterpiece.
This game helps students practise calculating percentage values of numbers up to 100, using percentages and quantities in multiples of 10. By applying these skills to a variety of problems, learners strengthen their understanding of percentages, improve mental maths fluency, and develop accuracy in applying their knowledge to different contexts. The hands-on process of building a robot keeps motivation high throughout the game.
