Fourth Grade-MiSS Thomson
During our authentic period,
we learned that the numbers we
use are called Arabic numbers
because the Arabs used them CEN
turtles ago and taught them to the
people of other nations The Hin
dus are believed to have invented
them. Also we are trying to
master our Roman Numerals so
that we can combine them to
make large numbers. When we
see these Roman Numerals on
monuments and old buildings, we
hope to be able to translated them
into Arabic numbers.
