At the start of a unit of work pupils should glue a copy of the learning

journey into their books at the top of an empty page double.

Pupils should be provided with a set of levelled questions to help them self

assess their starting level / grade for the topic. This should happen prior to

any teaching.

Pupils then complete the ‘I can….’statement ‘ by describing the mathematical skill they can already

do. They should answer their chosen question as evidence and then set

themselves a target, they should refer to a specific skill rather than a level.

This should then be dated.

Each lesson pupils should go back to their ‘record of learning ‘ page and review their progress against their

target..

They should record the date and complete the following sentence. ‘This

lesson I learnt ………….. If appropriate they should add an

example from the self assessment questions of the type of questions they

can answer now which they couldn’t answer before.

If they have achieved their target they should set themselves a new target.

Level 3

An electric guitar costs £462. The shop is going to have a 50% off sale. What is 50% of £462?

Level 4The shop decide that 50% is too much to take off the price. Work out the following percentages of £46225% = 75% = 10% =

Level 5

An electric guitar costs £462. The shop is going to have a sale. They haven’t made a decision about what to reduce the price by yet. Help them to make a decision by calculating the following percentages :23% = 15% = 81% =

Level 6

An electric guitar costs £462. The shop is going to have a sale. Work out the new cost of the guitar if it is reduced by:23% = 15% = 81% =

Level 7

This electric guitar has been reduced by 27%. It now costs £760. What did it cost originally?
