Using algebraic expressions to represent situations can be both educational and useful. Today we looked at another way to use them--for fun! We explored several magic number "tricks" and discovered how they work by using both pictures and symbols to represent the different steps of the "tricks". Students were first amazed, and then satisfied to understand the algebra behind the tricks.
