Percents Less Than 1 and Greater Than 100

An activity that is relevant to these times could be a project on the effects of COVID-19. Students can look at the effectiveness of different measures taken by governments and populations. They can research the population vs the number of people infected and the number of deaths. They can extend it to look at the number infected at different times. Students can easily extend it by going more in depth and looking at multiple factors. They will do a write up after they are done their calculations to show their understanding of what percentages mean.
