Title - Roman Numeral Math

This lesson gives the history of Roman Numerals and it also lets students practice some math skills using Roman Numerals instead of Arabic Numerals.

Roman Numerals:

Give the students the background information and what each of the seven letters stands for in modern day times.

     L

     M

I had the students complete a chart much like the one below, and then they were asked to complete the math problems (in Arabic Numerals). Though the problems are more to a high school level, they could be adapted to fit any age group.
