PREDICTING WITH NUMBERS

Hi!
In this post I would like to share what is predicting with numbers . It is a fun game using math technique. I grew up as 90's kids . So it was in my 5th grade , I invented this game in my class which will help you practice to add numbers faster and as well as increases your memory power . So I thought , I could teach this game to my 4th grade boy helping him to learn math in fun way . Below are the things needed.

Note : Writing & coloring is done by my son .

Scissor 1
Ruler 1
Pencil 1
Black pen 1
Black marker 1
White A4 sheet papers 3 count
Craft knife or cutting blade small
Crayola crayons or Any crayons of your choice - 10 colors

Firstly take 3 A4 sheet papers .
Fold them into two .
Take a scissor and cut the folding mark as shown in the picture.
Now staple the papers like a booklet as shown in the picture .
Now leave the front 2 pages for adding the title.
In the 3rd page write down 10 colors of your choice. As shown in the picture.

Write the colors in the same page orders as shown in the pictures above .
Marking the PAGE NUMBERS are important.

After the 5th page leave one page and make 10 blank markings as shown in the picture.
Now use the craft knife or a small cutting blade slit the marks for only one page as shown in the image .
Now under the cuttings of the paper where it as been marked write down the numbers from 10 - 1 in descending order as shown in the picture .
Now above the cut paper write the numbers from 1- 10 in ascending order .

Note: when you open the paper which is number as 1 , you will find number 10 below it . Please refer to the picture. Like wise for all other numbers

Ask your friend to choose one color from the list . He/she can keep them in the mind and need not say it out loud.

Eg: I choose RED color .

Now Ask the person if he/she could find the color in the following pages one by one . Just YES OR NO .
You should keep in mind the PAGE number for which they say YES .

Eg: I find RED color in PAGE 1 , 2 , 4 .

Now ADD the PAGE NUMBERS for which he/she have told YES .

Eg : 1+2+4 = 7

The ANSWER which you get after adding keep that in the mind .
Now turn the page where you have written the hidden numbers .
Now look below the number which you got it has the answer. You will find a HIDDEN NUMBER .
Now refer to the color page in the front to find out what was the color which will tell you , which your friend chose in his/her mind . ( Refer the picture with the example) .

Eg: I have got 7 as the Answer.
Now when you turn to the hidden numbers page & open the number 7 , you will find number 4 hidden behind it .
4 is the number given to the color RED in the colors page .
So the color which I had in my mind is RED


Note : This Game can be played with naming with colors , fruits, vegetables, chocolate names , etc ... of your choice .
It can also be played from number 1 - 10 or 1 - 20 . It helps you in remembering the numbers & add them faster .

Teachers can also use this technique to teach math in a fun way
