Did you know that there are math tricks that can allow you to read someone’s mind? Or that you can predict what day of the week a particular date will fall on in 40 years? We will create flat figures whose top and bottom keep changing color! And toothpicks...who would have thought you could be so tricky with simple wooden toothpicks? Learn to do these tricks (and others) and find out how mathematics makes them possible.
