The students will use ACC basketball statistics to practice the process of converting fractions to decimals then to percents and will learn how to create and edit a spreadsheet. They will then use this spreadsheet to analyze their data. This unit is done during the basketball season which takes approximately 15 weeks from the middle of November to the middle of March. Teachers must have Clarisworks to open the sample spreadsheet in the lesson, but may recreate it in another spreadsheet program.

In this interactive unit, students are introduced to the various factors and elements that contribute to a company's success by creating a product to sell. Students participate in a mock business venture from beginning to end - from making the product (a candy bar) to selling the product. Some math concepts and principles include:using proportional relationshipssolving multistep problemsdetermining percents, markup, and taxFurther, students apply English Language Arts standards to their finished product, including:designing a marketing posterwriting, recording, and presenting a sales pitch
Students learn about and practice converting between fractions, decimals and percentages. Using …
Students learn about and practice converting between fractions, decimals and percentages. Using a LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT robot and a touch sensor, each group inputs a fraction of its choosing. Team members convert this same fraction into a decimal, and then a percentage via hand calculations, and double check their work using the NXT robot. Then they observe the robot moving forward and record that distance. Students learn that the distance moved is a fraction of the full distance, based on the fraction that they input, so if they input ½, the robot moves half of the original distance. From this, students work backwards to compute the full distance. Groups then compete in a game in which they are challenged to move the robot as close as possible to a target distance by inputting a fraction into the NXT bot.

Numberstring.com describes number strings as "a set of related math problems, crafted to support students to construct big ideas about mathematics and build their own strategies."
This number string builds students understanding and strategies related to percent, particularly exploring questions such as, "3 is 25% of what number?"
SWBAT articulate strategies for determining a whole when given a part and the percentage it represents.
