Mystery Number Skype

Yesterday morning we had the wonderful opportunity of "journeying" to Sudan. We engaged in a Skype call with a kindergarten school at the Khartoum International Community School. During this exchange we participated in "Mystery Number Skype". The way this worked was before our call, our class chose a number between 1 and 100 to use as our mystery number. The kindergarten class in Khartoum then had to use their mathematical knowledge to ask questions to eventually guess our number. It was wonderful seeing little minds at work as students used mathematical terms such as "bigger, smaller, larger than, less than, more, digit, ones place, tens place". We are looking forward to our next Mystery Number Skype date!
