$ Per Centum
percents · percent of money amounts
To compute the percent of numbers and money amounts
$ Per Centum is a Grade 6 percent game that puts percentage calculations into a money context. Players draw cards to create a percent and a dollar amount, then compute the percent of that amount and compare results. Because the numbers change every round, students get repeated practice connecting percents, decimals, and money without working through a fixed page of questions.
Use it in a small group when you want percent-of-a-number practice with built-in opportunities for students to check calculations and explain how they handled the percentage.
