=====================
In this clip we look at the structure of fractions, decimals and percentages and how they are different ways of representing quantities or proportions. We see how a fraction is composed, the meaning of “percentage” as an amount “out of 100”, and place values in a decimal. The end sketch looks at why the cliche of “giving 110%” often associated with sport commentary is in fact incorrect.
This clip is from the BBC series Kick Sum Maths. The best fun anyone can have learning maths! It’s a mixed-media mash-up maths sketch show delivering KS2 maths.
Each subject flows seamlessly from one teaching point to the next, using animation, puppetry, live action and visual effects to bring maths to life in a whole new way. It has an anarchic, dangerous look and feel, captivating children from the outset and engaging them all the way through the clearly explained maths.
Topics covered include prime numbers, finding factor pairs, shapes and angles, perimeter and area, scale and coordinates, pie charts, fractions and decimals, percentages, the order of operations and an introduction to algebra.

Teaching Maths?
This clip could be used to consolidate the meaning of fractions. It can also be used to illustrate the meaning of percentage and place value for decimals. The end sketch could stimulate discussion on when more than 100% makes sense and when it doesn't. This clip also leads on to Decimal Dance Off 2.
These clips could be used for teaching Maths at KS2 or at a beginner level in England, Wales and Northern Ireland and 1st and 2nd Level in Scotland.
