Amaze your friends and stump your parents with number magic tricks! You don't have to own a magician's equipment to perfect each feat--you just practice it a few times. Some tricks turn you into a mind reader, such as the one where somebody rolls some dice, stacks them, and you tell everyone the total numbers on the hidden dots. Or, reveal the number a friend has chosen from a list on a piece of paper. Or, guess a word someone has chosen from a dictionary. Then try some new card tricks, and finish by drawing a line on a piece of paper with only one side, and a magic origami trick of turning an 8. From the author of Math Magic.

Grades 3-6--Math and magic mix for learning fun in this book of 34 tricks, divided into 6 categories. Each activity is introduced with a brief summary, a list of needed items, and details on preparation, followed by clear, step-by-step directions, which often include black-and-white drawings that clarify and add humor. A section called "The Mathemagical Secret" explains why the trick works. Readers can open this book to any page and find a neat trick that can be performed easily, even if they don't fully understand the math, which may well come with practice. A wonderful resource for supplemental math activities and for recreation.
