IXL- Assessing your needs 

• IXL is a personalised online learning platform for students in all year groups, primarily focused on math and english and arts, but also including science and social studies.
• We will be going online, and you will be asked some questions. I cannot help you with these questions, but we can discuss at the end. If you don't know how to answer a question there is a "I don't know how to do this yet" button. 

There is no time limit

What is a percentage? 

Percent means 'out of 100'. So, finding a percentage is finding how much something is out of 100. 

Think of any measurement or object split into one hundred equal bits. Each bit is one percent of the whole thing. 

They can be expressed as whole numbers, decimals and fractions.

How do I work out the percentage? 

Think of an object and imagine it is cut into 100 pieces 

• If 60 out of those 100 pieces are coloured/ highlighted  it means  60%
• 40% means 40 out of 100
• 11% means 11 out of 100
• 76 out of 100?
• 29 out of 100?
• 35 out of 100? 

Use the information we just learned to figure out the percentages 

Use what we just learned to figure out the following percentages

What are the following as a percentage? 

1.  59 out of 100 =

 

2. 96 out of 100=

3. 78 out of 100=

4. 24 out of 100=

5. 3 out of 100=

What percent of Izuku is made up of his...

Head 

Feet 

Torso

What percentage is left?

Charlie completes 20% of his homework before dinner. After he has eaten, he does 55% more. How much of his homework does he have left to do?

Is it: 

A. 10%

B. 61%

C. 25%

D. 88%

How did you work it out? 

We would need to work out the percentage of homework he has done already by adding. 

20% before eating

55% after eating 

20+55= 75

Then we minus that number from 100 

75 - 100= 25

Meaning he has 25% of his homework left to do 

Worksheet...

PHOTOGRAPHY  

Photography basics: 

Shoot from a different angles. Eye level is often not the best height from which to take pictures. Try squatting for a low angle, or standing on a chair for a high one.

If the light is a little bit low, make sure to keep the camera steady, try using a tripod, flat surface or rest on your elbows to avoid blur.

Place the subject off-center. This is an easy way to make your pictures more interesting. But off-center composition makes locking the focus all the more imperative!

When shooting indoors, try using natural light from windows or the brightest interior lights you can find. Don’t be afraid to move your subject around or play with the lighting to get it right.
