1. Percentage – Expressing a Quantity – Non-Calculator – Car Race
In this activity, 2 teams compete to finish the race first by
correctly answering 8 questions.
The Race Screen begins with an animation. Click/Touch the white box to choose a question. Click on a number to go to the corresponding question.
Click the ‘Answer’ box for the answer. Click the white box to return to the race.
Click the team’s car to move it forward one space. There is a winning animation.
This game has sound!

2. This game is flexible and can be run in a variety of ways:
Teams could choose questions individually, with the opportunity for
the other team to ‘steal’ if their answer is incorrect.
A whole team may complete a question with one student
being chosen to provide an answer.
Individual students from each team may compete
simultaneously for a quickest answer.
Red/Blue team students can be paired. The teacher can then either assess
which majority of a team got their answer correct fastest (using mini-whiteboards)
or poll the class as to how many red/blue team members won within each pair, and therefore determine the overall winning team.
