A Number Demonstration
Instead of the words, as used in the preceding game, follow the same plan as with two digit numbers, as—
| 1 is 29 | 4 is 100 | 7 is 35 |
| 2 is 93 | 5 is 61 | 8 is 12 |
| 3 is 57 | 6 is 44 | 9 is 98 |
| 10 is 86 |
This is simply a combination picture of two Code words. One is TIE and 29 is KNOB, a picture of a huge red TIE hanging on a KNOB will answer the purpose.
2 is SNOW and 93 is BOMB, a big, black, sizzling BOMB in the SNOW bank. Picture each pair as given and recall them by first recalling the Code word for the position in the list and it will be associated with another object in the picture, the number value of which is the number as given.
Accuracy in this game is dependent upon being familiar with the Code, know the sounds, and if the Code word for 57 does not come to mind easily use any word with the two sounds L and K and it will represent 57. You could use the word Lake, Elk, or Leg, any one of which will enable you to remember the number.
Other uses of the Number Code will be given in the next book, and there will be found many applications of it to the needs of the child in his school work. It is helpful in many ways and should be mastered both for its usefulness and for the value in mental development which will come from practicing with it.
