Free Roman numerals cheat sheet, with practice (PDF)
The seven letters, the rules for adding and taking away, tables to 1000, how to write any number and read a year, and practice with answers. For Years 3 to 6: Roman numerals on clocks in Year 3, to 100 in Year 4 and to 1000 in Year 5.
What’s in it
The first page has the seven letters and their values, tables from 1 to 20 and in tens and hundreds, the adding and taking-away rules with the six pairs that take away, never four of a letter in a row, the patterns that repeat, and a clock face with Roman numerals.
The second page shows how to write any number by thousands, hundreds, tens and ones, the traps (why 49 is XLIX, not IL), how to read a numeral and a year, why Roman numerals have no zero, and practice questions with the answers upside down. Every numeral on the sheet is made and checked by code.
