Test Taking Strategies / Follow Directions Prank/Fake Quiz
This quiz is a fun and funny way to get students to realize they need to pay attention to directions.
There is a list of numerous steps to complete, which can actually be fun for students. HOWEVER, the first step says to "read all directions before continuing" and the last step says "only do..." so most students mess this up and do all the steps as they go along. Then you can give them the lesson at the end :)

IQ Test (teaching students to follow directions)
This is a fake test that simply asks students to read ALL questions before answering anything. The final question asks them to turn in the paper for 10 extra credit points if there is no writing or erase marks on the paper. There are questions such as: "write your middle name", or "solve for X when 4 - X = 2". Can be easily modified for any grade level. It is a fantastic way to remind students of the importance of following directions. Works for high schoolers and adults, too!I remember my
