This is a presentation I used on Remembrance Day this year. It uses some rounded figures for numbers of soldiers that were involved in World War 1 and how many were injured, died or went missing. The pupils were very interested in working these values out in numbers that they understood more - 3/4, 1/10, etc. They even asked for more! I gave them all mini whiteboards so that they could do the workings out on those or in their books if they preferred. You can also compare at the end the number of soldiers from each side, and ask who lost the most, in actual numbers and in fractions.

A nice idea to mix maths with history and in particular WW1. Thanks for sharing.
