Activity #1a: Roman Numerals: Add to 12
First, let’s review what you have already learned about Roman Numerals. Here is a short video for you to watch and review with.
You are now going to try Addition with Roman Numerals. It is similar to the addition you already know, except we are using the Roman Numeral symbols.
You can download and view or print the “helping paper” in case you forget what number each symbol represents.
Let’s warm up. Don’t look at the answers until you’ve tried answering the questions!
V + V = ____ I + III = ____
IV + II = ____ VIII + I = ____
I + IX = ____ II + VI = ____
IX + II = ____ I + XI = ____
IV + IV = ____ VII + II = ____
Now here are the answers: X, IV, VI, IX, X, VIII, XI, XII, VIII, IX

Activity #1b: Math Card Games
Here are some card games you can play for fun and skill building!
There are card games listed for levels Kindergarten to Intermediate level. Try playing the games that challenge you the most.
This is one of my favorite simpler card games from the list:
Traditional War
Players: Two Skill: Determining more or less
Equipment: A standard deck of cards with face cards removed and Ace = 1.
Rules:
■■ Shuffle the cards. Divide them into two piles, with the same number of cards in each pile. Place one pile, face down, in front of each player.
■■ Both players turn over a card.
■■ Players determine who has the greater card. The player with the greater card keeps both cards and places both cards in their bank, a separate pile off to the side.
■■ If the cards are the same, each player places the three cards from the top of their pile face down. At the same time each player flips over the fourth card in their pile. The player who plays the greater card keeps all of the cards played that round.
■■ Play continues until all of the cards have been played or one player is out of cards.
■■ The player with the most cards in their bank wins.
