Lessons tagged with "discounts"

This number sense lesson focuses on solving problems involving markups and discounts. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read the problem, identifying the original price and the percent. Then, they identify if it is a markup or discount, and convert the percent markup or discount to a decimal number. Finally, they calculate the markup or discount in dollars and then calculate the final price. In addition to the lesson, there are four pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
