It is called a 'Clap Board' and is used by the film editors to match up sound and motion as well as mark scenes for editing. Follow the link below if you want to buy one.

Movies are separated into separate scenes/set-ups/sections for shooting. Each of them numbered. Take is which time they're filming it. Scene 5 take 4 means they are shooting the 5th scene for the 4th time.
