Full lesson	Create for a teacher a set of content for giving a lesson, beginning with the lesson plan. Each new block of materials must begin with an H1 heading (other subheaders must be H2, H3, etc). When you describe required pictures, write those descriptions in curly brackets, for example: {A picture of a triangle}

Lesson plan

Topic

Reverse Percentages

Objectives

• Understand the concept of reverse percentages.
• Apply reverse percentage calculations to real-life scenarios.
• Solve problems involving reverse percentages with confidence.

Materials

• Whiteboard and markers
• Projector for displaying problems
• Handouts with practice worksheets
• Calculators (if needed)
• Sticky notes for immediate feedback

Grade/Age Group

Key Stage 3 (Ages 11-14)

Subject

Mathematics

Lesson Structure

Step Number	Step Title	Length (minutes)	Details
1	Introduction to Topic	5	Introduce reverse percentages, explain its relevance in real-life contexts (discounts, tax).
2	Explanation of Concepts	10	Define reverse percentages, demonstrate how to calculate them using formulas (e.g., finding original price).
3	Guided Practice	8	Work through 2-3 example problems as a class. Use projector to show calculations step by step.
4	Independent Practice	5	Distribute practice worksheets for individual work. Ensure students have sufficient time to attempt problems independently.
5	Review and Clarify	2	Address common questions and misconceptions. Encourage students to ask for help if needed.
6	Homework Assignment	0	Provide homework worksheet with reverse percentage problems to reinforce learning. Explain that it will be checked but not presented.

Assessment

• Formative assessment through observation during guided practice and independent work.
• Homework check at the beginning of the next lesson without student presentations to encourage participation without anxiety.

Additional Notes

• Ensure that differentiation is considered: support for students who may struggle and extension activities for those who are ready for more challenging problems.
• Use sticky notes for students to write down one thing they learned or found challenging at the end of the lesson for feedback to the teacher.

National Curriculum Connection

This lesson aligns with the UK National Curriculum for Mathematics, focusing on the application of percentages in various contexts, developing both skills and understanding required at this key stage.
