Number Framework Stages 4 to 7.
Place dashes on the whiteboard to indicate how many digits are in the number.
The students can ask questions about specific places, like, “Is there a five in the tens place?”
They may also ask digit related questions, like, “Does the number have the digit eight anywhere?”,
“Is the tens digit odd?”, or, “Is the 7 hundreds digit greater than five?”
Each time you answer “No” to their question, add a piece to the hangman. If they guess the correct digit, place that digit above the appropriate dash in the correct column.
Encourage the students to be systematic by using lists of digits and eliminating as they receive answers.
