Victory!

Today in class we did Mystery Skype. Mystery Skype is when a class Skype chats with another class and both classes try to find the school and location of their opponent. It's sort of like a competition to see who finds the place first. And guess what? We won!! It was like the best thing ever! My teacher, Mr. Morefield, said that maybe they lost because they didn't narrow the search down into one tiny place(And their second question was: Are you in Moscow? I mean like, seriously?! That's not even narrowing it down! That's just wasting their questions!). That class was in the Abu Dhabi American Community School in Abu Dhabi, The United Arab Emirates. These were all the rules:




1. You can only ask yes/no questions
2. You have 40 minutes to finish the task
3. Everybody has to have a job

    Hello Minh Ha,
    I have enjoyed reading your blog. I found this post most interesting. I used to play "20 questions" with my daughter. I would think of something and she had twenty questions to guess what it was. At first she would just guess things, but little by little she learned to ask questions to narrow down the options. Just like you said, it is important to know what questions to ask so you can narrow it down and make an educated guess.
    Keep on writing.
    Mr. Busk-
