Number line

Mr. Beattie's class has been working on Odd and Even numbers using the number line. They played a quick game of "guess my number." Play at home!!

Here is how you play:
Directions: 
1. One person secretly chooses a number and says if it is an odd or even number 
2. The second person tries to guess the number. You can use a number line to help
3. The first person says if the guessed number is morethan (or greater than) or less than that number 

4. The second person uses that information to deduce the number.


This number line too easy? Use a larger number line, decimals, or fractions! Here are some ideas...
