A Level 3/4 Narrative 

I was at a school the other day where Yu Gi Oh cards are confiscated if rules are not followed. Any way the office told me that they put the confiscated cards into an envelope; write the name of the person and how many cards are confiscated on the envelope and then lock them in the strong room until the end of term when the cards are given back. Last term 6 324 cards were confiscated.

This term there are:

• 24 envelopes each with 27 cards in,
• 6 envelopes each with 63 cards in,
• 1 envelope with 123 cards in,
• 15 envelopes each with 38 cards in and
• 49 envelopes each with 8 cards in.

I was wondering whether the students are getting better at following the rules and if so how much better?

You can change the numbers of packets and the numbers in packets to suit your learners.
