Ma and Pa Kettle Math


Fun video I saw today in Ed 531, which confused half the class. I feel like I would love to use this video for now and eternity when teaching math. Great opening video for teaching Basic Math. The problem with ma and pa in every example is a fundamental misconception about place value. They keep using a 1 as 1, when the value is actually 1 ten. Place value error. Its a math thing. this video is awesome though. Thanks Dr. Eiffler.
