Introduction: How do you plan to introduce the lesson and/or motivate the students?
(Attention Getter, Review, and/or Preview) Explain your purpose.
Begin lesson with a 'brain dump,' and ask students to write down all of the information that they
learned in the lessons leading up to this one (fractions, decimals, computation with decimals,
etc.). *This will remind them on concepts that they will be using, as well as give us an
opportunity to quickly brush up on anything that we will be needing for our new lesson.
Procedures: How will the lesson develop or proceed? What steps will you follow? Include

questions you will ask and examples you will provide.


1. To teach the concept of percent, I will begin by explaining that percent can be substituted for
the word hundredth. The fraction can be written as 25/100, which is the same as .25 (twentyfive hundredths), or 25%.
2. Roxbury High School announced that out of 200 students in their 9th grade, 25% of them
made the honor roll. How many students made the honor roll? Does anyone know how we
might be able to solve this problem? Remember that 25% is .25 or 25/100...
If you multiply .25 by 200, you will get what? 50. Who can tell me what 50 means in this
problem? There were 50 students who made the honor roll.
3. How about: the basketball team won 80% of the 25 games it played last season. How many
games did they lose? The first thing we should do it turn 80% into a decimal.. 80 x .0100 which
is..? .80 What do we need to do next to figure out how many games they lost? We need to
multiply to figure out how many games they won. .80 x 25 = . 20 If they won 20 out of
25 games, then how many games did they lose? 5
4. For this next problem, you're each going to solve it on your own. I'd also like for you to draw
out how you've solved the problem, using a model, drawing, or context. 85% of Blackwoods
Grocery Store's employees made it to their staff meeting. If there are 75 total employees, how
many missed the meeting?
5. Allow students a few minutes to work on the problem on their own, if anyone needs help, ask
them to think about it for a little while before you assist them. Once everyone is finished with the
problem, ask one student to come up and explain what they did to solve the problem. When
finished, ask the class if they agree or not and if not, see if they can figure out where they or the
presenter went wrong. We will not move on until each student has a clear and correct answer and
explanation.
6. Now we're going to do something a little bit different. We are going to calculate percent
increase and percent decrease in a problem. In June, John worked a total of 35 hours, in July he
worked 50 hours. What percentage did John's working hours increase in July? Does anyone
have any ideas as to what we should do first? First, we need to figure out the difference
between the new and old numbers.. 50-35=15 15 is the increase that John has worked in hours
from June to July, but we need to work it into a percent for it to be a percent increase. So, what
we need to do first, is divide our increase by the first number... 15 = .43 and now to turn
35
this into a percent, who can tell me what we need to do?! That's right, multiply .43 by 100. 100
x .43 = 43%. We now know that John worked 43% more hours in July than he did in June.
7. You're going to work on this next problem on your own, using what you learned to find
percent increase, to find the percent decrease. In September, Mary worked 39.5 hours and in
October, she worked 33 hours. What percentage did Mary's working hours decrease in October?
When everyone has finished, walk around and check answers. Have students raise their hands to
go through the steps one at a time as the problem is worked out on the board. Who would like to
tell me the first step I need to make to solve this problem? Of course, we need to find the
amount that her hours decreased! 39.5-33=6.5. What do we need to do next? Divide the
decrease by the first number.. 6.5 = .16 Now to turn the decimal into a percent?
39.5
100 x .16 = 16% - Mary worked 16% less hours in October than she did in September.

Assessment/Check for Understanding: How will you measure if the students have met the
lesson objective?
Before I send you home with some homework, you're going to get the next 10 minutes to take a
short quiz. In the final 5 minutes of class after everyone is finished, we will quickly go over the
answers to make sure everyone is prepared for tonight's homework.

Closure/Transition: How will you end the lesson?


Now that we have mastered percentages, tonight's homework shouldn't give you any troubles!
There are 6 questions that all deal with percents; finding reductions, taxes, percent increases &
decreases, and interest. Please finish it tonight and we will quickly go over it tomorrow before
class. If anyone has any questions, now would be the time. If you haven't mastered this skill,
moving on will be near impossible for you as our 3 next lessons all work together!
Manipulatives: What manipulatives will you use for this lesson?
For students who need a more visual representation of percent, I will use base-ten cubes.
http://nlvm.usu.edu/en/nav/frames_asid_160_g_3_t_1.html?
open=activities&from=topic_t_1.html This manipulative can be used for students to work on
classifying the part whole or percent but should not be used for solving as that will not
help the students learn.

Quiz:
1. What is the sale price of a $75 dress if there is a 30% reduction?
$75 x 30% = 75 x .30 = 22.5
$75 - $22.50 = $52.50
The sale price of the dress with a 30% reduction is $52.50
2. What is the total price on a $35.89 dress with a 8% sales tax?
$35.89 x 8% = 35.89 x .08 = 2.87
$35.89 + $2.87 = $38.76
The total price of the dress with a 8% sales tax, is $38.76
3. In March, Anna spent $342 on groceries without using coupons. After taking a couponing
class, she decided she would try it once and if her percent decrease was higher than 37%, she
would continue to coupon. In April, she used coupons for the first time and her total dropped to
$203. What is the percent decrease and is it worth it to Anna to keep couponing
$342 - $203 = $139
$139 = .41
$342
.41 x 100 = 41%
Anna's grocery bill decreased by 41% by using coupons. She should continue to coupon.
Homework:

Solve the problems. Be sure to explain your answers.


1. What is the better buy? 2 cups of ice cream for $5.20 or 20% off a pint of ice cream that costs
$6.20?
$6.20 x 20% = $6.20 x .20 = $1.24
20% of $6.20 = $1.24
$6.20 - $1.24 = $4.96
1 pint of ice cream = $4.96
2 cups = 1 pint
The better buy is 1 pint of ice cream with 20% off
2. 65% of 120 students ate pizza for lunch. How many students ate pizza?
120 students x 65% = 120 x .65 = 78 students ate pizza
3. If 15% of 60 students forgot their homework, how many remembered their homework?
60 students x 15% = 60 x .15 = 9 students
60 students 9 students = 51 students remembered their homework
4. A Bike costs $210. Would you rather have a coupon for 20% off or $40 off any purchase?
Why?
$210 x 20% = $210 x .20 = $42
$210 - $42 = $168
$210 - $40 = $170
UMPI College of Education Lesson Plan Format

Revised 5/19/15

I would rather use the coupon for 20% off, as that would take $42 off of the bike's price, leaving
me to pay $168. The $40 off coupon would leave me paying $170.
5. Kelly borrows $4,200 on 4% interest rate for 6 months. What will that total principal and
interest payment be?
$4,200
= $700/month for loan
6 months
$4,200 x 4% = 4200 x .04 = $168/month for interest
$700 (loan)+ $168 (interest) = $868/month
$868 x 6 months = $5,208 final loan price after 6 months
6. Macy sold 623 whoopie pies in July and 596 in August. What is the percent decrease in
Macy's whoopie pie sales from July to August?
623 596 = 27 decrease
27 = .04
623
.04 x 100 = 4%
There was a 4% decrease in Macy's whoopie pie sales from July to August

Proportions are two equivalent ratios. Use this problem as an example: The ratio of apple pies to
key lime pies is 7 to 3. What is the percent of apple pies?
We can find that the total ratio of pies is 10. To find the percent of apple pies, we would set up a
proportion with 100 as the denominator of the second fraction. We use 100 because percents are
out of 100. We then solve for the variable.

1. It takes 40 minutes for 3 people to paint 5 walls. How many minutes does It take 8 people to
paint 6 walls?
- First calculate how long it will take one person to paint one wall.
- It will take 1/5 of the time to paint one wall. So it will take 8 minutes for 3 people to paint
one wall.
- For only one person, it will take 3 times as long, so it will take 8 x 3 = 24 minutes for one
person to paint one wall.
- So, the number of minutes it will take for one person to paint 6 walls is 24 x 6 = 144.
- The number of minutes it will take for 8 people to paint 6 walls is 144 8 = 18.

The average speed is not just the average of 30 mph and 60 mph. He traveled for a longer time
uphill (since he was going slower), so we can estimate that the average speed is closer to 30 mph
than 60 mph.
To calculate the average speed, we will make use of the following:
Average speed = total distance
total time
Distance uphill = distance downhill
What was the total distance traveled?
Total distance = distance uphill + distance downhill
= 2 x distance uphill
Distance up hill = speed uphill x time uphill
= 30 mph x 8 minutes x 1 hour
60 minutes
= 4 miles
Substituting to find the total distance:
total distance = 8 miles
What was the total time spent traveling?
Total time = time uphill + time downhill
Distance downhill
time downhill = Speed downhill
60 minutes
= 4 miles x
1 hour
60 mph
= 4 minutes
total time = 8 minutes + 4 minutes
= 12 minutes
Now that we know both the total distance and total time, we can find the average speed.

3. It takes 28 minutes for 3 people to clean 7 rooms. How many minutes does it take 4 people to
clean 10 rooms?
- First, calculate how long it will take one person to clean one room. It will
take 1/7 of the time to clean one room. So it will take 4 minutes for 3
people to clean one room.
- For only one person, it will take 3 times as long, so it will take 4 x 3 =
12 minutes for one person to clean one room.
- So, the number of minutes it will take for one person to clean 10 rooms
is 12 x 10 = 120

5. Starting at home, Macy traveled uphill to her school for 12 minutes at just 30 mph. She then
traveled back home along the same path downhill at a speed of 60 mph. What is her average
speed for the entire trip from home to her school and back?
The average speed is not just the average of 30 mph and 60 mph. She traveled for a longer time
uphill (since she was going slower), so we can estimate that the average speed is closer to 30 mph
than 60 mph.

What was the total distance traveled?
Total distance = distance uphill + distance downhill
= 2 x distance uphill
Distance up hill = speed uphill x time uphill
= 30 mph x 12 minutes x 1 hour

Assessment/Check for Understanding: How will you measure if the students have met the
lesson objective?
Hand out a quick, 2-question quiz and have the students turn them in when they are finished.

Closure/Transition: How will you end the lesson?


Play the Jeopardy game (listed as a manipulative) with two teams. The games includes rates,
ratios, proportions, solving proportions and story problems with proportions. Solving all of these
questions allows the students to reflect on most of the unit (all but percent, but I could add
percent questions for reflection on that too) and is a fun wrap up to the 4 lessons.

Quiz:
1. It takes 25 minutes for 6 people to hang 6 pieces of drywall. How many minutes does it take 9
people to hang 9 pieces of drywall?
- Imagine that each person is assigned to one piece of drywall, and all 6
people begin hanging at the same time. Since everyone will finish hanging
their assigned piece of drywall after 25 minutes, it takes one person 25
minutes to hang on piece of dry wall.
- If we have 9 people and 9 pieces of drywall, we can assign one piece to
each person.
- Everyone will take 25 minutes to hang their assigned piece.
- In other words, it takes 25 minutes for 9 people to hang 9 pieces of
