How not to teach counting

May 11th, 2009

We’re no strangers to the perils of publishing. Maths-Whizz stands on the quality and accuracy of its maths exercises. When errors crop up (and, with over 2400 animated and exam-style exercises, they do) we do our best to correct them, and improve our service and software in the process.

This is all par for the course in publishing. No learning materials can be guaranteed perfect, but you’d expect a basic children’s counting book to be pretty much error-free, which is what makes the following quite so baffling and hilarious.

The authors clearly would have benefited from some basic Foundation (Kindergarten)-level online maths tutoring.
