You can see how much charge remains in your iPad battery in the status bar. You can also add a widget to the Home Screen to monitor the battery levels of your iPad and connected accessories, including AirPods and Apple Pencil.
By default, iPad shows a battery icon without a percentage, though you can display the number alongside the icon. Control Center shows the current percentage, too, even if that setting is off.
