Work it out. Don’t know it straight away? Look at the strategy.

How to work it outLine up 100%, 50%, 25% and 10%

Write down the whole number: that is 100%.
Divide by 2 for 50%, by 4 for 25% and by 10 for 10%.
Build the requested percentage from these parts: 75% is 50% + 25%, 5% is half of 10%.
For a discount, subtract that amount from the price.

30% of 80, 80 ÷ 10 = 8, 3 × 8 = 24

The theory

Built on research

Six principles from research into learning.

1Retrieval practice
Answers from their own head
Typing, tapping or pointing, never multiple choice. Retrieving it themselves makes it stick.
Why this works ›
2Immediate feedback with worked examples
An explanation right after a mistake
The method step by step, with the numbers of that sum. Then the sum comes back.
Why this works ›
3Adaptive practice
Always at the right level
Seven in ten sums go well, three are just a step further.
Why this works ›
4Spaced and interleaved practice
Review until it sticks
What hasn’t stuck comes back more often, spread over days and mixed.
Why this works ›
5Mastery learning
Move on when it sticks
A new step opens only when the previous one goes smoothly.
Why this works ›
6Formative assessment
Seeing what has stuck
Per child and per class you see what goes smoothly and what doesn’t. One click sets what is needed.
