Mrs. Boese's 3rd Grade Mystery # Skype

Mrs. Boese's class has Skype again with their collaborative classroom in Lincolnshire, Illinois.  This time we played the "Mystery Number Game".  Their students thought of a number first and our students had to try and guess it based on yes/no questions such as "Is the one's place odd", "Is it a 3 digit number", "Is it greater than/less than..." etc.  Then their students guessed our mystery number.  The students had fun trying to figure it out and enjoyed collaborating outside their own classroom walls with another class in another state!  I have them guessing our number at the beginning of our movie because I love how excited they get "We did it, we did it!".  I also love the social skills aspect this brings by having students introduce themselves and practice their math skills with students from around the United States.
