Magic trick!

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, step right up! In this magician�s version
of I Spy, you read your students� minds to discover the chosen flashcard. Just
enlist the help of a discreet assistant and get ready to wow
the crowd. Print your flashcards on different colours. Tell your audience to choose one of the flashcards but not the ghost.
Leave the room so the audience can select a particular flashcard. When you return your assistant begins pointing to different flashcards in the classroom one by one, asking "Is it a ...?" Concentrate on each thing for a moment
before saying "No" � or "Yes" when he points to the chosen item. The Secret: Ahead of time, instruct your assistant to point
to the ghost immediately before pointing to the selected object. And remember, a magician never reveals her secrets! Greetings from Greece, papadeligames
