What Integer Am I?

integers · Identifying integers using greater than and less than clues

What Integer Am I? is a Grade 6 whole-class guessing game with a hidden integer from -100 to 100. Students may ask any question as long as it uses greater than or less than, then use each answer to narrow the possible interval until the mystery number is identified. Negative values make comparison language especially important.

Use it as a warm-up when students are learning to order and compare integers on a number line. Encourage students to choose questions that cut the remaining range efficiently rather than guess one number at a time.
