Hi there, I designed this resource to be exactly like you described on purpose! This is to prevent guessing and make sure students read each problem and answer choice. :) I did describe this in the product description and directions. I hope that helps you use this resource more successfully in the future.

These sheets will get your kids working longer than expected. My students enjoy working with them, especially drawing. Clarify ahead of time how you want the boxes filled in. Checks and Xs look similar, so have one option just fill in the box. Make sure you read the directions - more than one answer can be correct. There might not even be a correct answer. It helps break the pattern of kids solving one choice and blindly filling in the other. So great.

I love the concept of these worksheets, but almost every page I have given to my students has a mistake. When they are given two choices, the wording of the choices makes both statements correct so they don't know which one to choose to color.
Reply from Activated Education
Hi Kelly, I'm sorry your students are having trouble with these. I'm not sure when you purchased this, but there was a major update done a while ago to address the typos and errors. It's also possible that the format itself isn't a good fit for your students. I designed these to not be a simple multiple choice response where one is always correct and one is always incorrect - however, that isn't always best for all students and I'm going through my resources to add versions that have less complex answers so teachers can differentiate. I can't give a firm date when that update will be ready but I will bump this resource to the top of my update list based on your feedback. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave detailed feedback. I appreciate it and will use it to make this resource better for all students. :) If you have any specific suggestions please feel free to email me at activateducation@gmail.com
