"This was fun and is a great way to show students that they need to be on their toes in real life to avoid being taken for a ride! It also shows that we all make mistakes."

Description

You've seen photos of these store bloopers around the web, and say to yourself, "you know, this would be great to use in my class...." but you never have the photo, and you never have the time to photoshop out the brands, fix the colors, crop the image and collect it all in one place.

Well, it's all been done for you, and only for the magic price of $4.95, which is nothing when you consider there are 20 different "math fails" that range from simple counting (how many nuggets are printed on that box?) to estimating the tip on a meal to figuring out how many calories are in a 20 calorie bottle of diet soda (it's not 20 calories, btw.)

Each "fail" is designed to be printed and laminated on an 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" sheet (you can trim it down from 11", right?), which are numbered from 1 - 20. Students can fill in the number of the problem on the answer sheet; there is room for 3 solutions on each side.

Answer key included!
