Early in the movie after Haley Joel Osment befriends a bum they are sitting at the kitchen table and the bum pours Haley a bowl of Captain Crunch and fills it over the rim of the bowl. In the next wide shot the bowl of cereal is below the bowl's rim level as they pour milk into it. See more...

Eugene Simonet is carrying two bags of groceries. After an argument with Arlene McKinney where he throws the bags down, he picks up and carries only one bag in. [He does pick up both bags, if you look closely before he walks off, he has both bags in his arms. However, he may have picked them both up at the same time.]
Near the start when Haley Joel Osment first meets his new teacher, there is a close up of his face when Mr. Simonet is speaking. It is around when he tells the class their year long assignment. In the background there is a kid from the class mouthing the exact words that Mr. Simonet is saying. [I don't think the kid in the background is mouthing the same words, I think he is just smacking his lips, or maybe talking to another child. It's too out of focus to tell what he's saying exactly, but it doesnt go along with the words being spoken.]
In the end of the film, where Haley Joe Osment's interview is shown, you can see the wise words Mr. Simonet wrote on the black board in the beginning, but erased in the middle of the film. Suddenly it's back in exact the same place. [It was rewritten by Mr Simonet for the benefit of the TV interview.]
When the boy is sat on the white bench asking the teacher why he hasn't called his mum and that he needs to be there when his dad returns. You see the boy drop the pencil he was using to cross out the 3 names of people he tried to help, by his feet. It lands on the bench where his feet are. In the shots following the pencil is gone. [The pencil rolls off.]
The first time we see Mr. Simonet driving in his car, you see clearly he has Washington plates; however, the movie takes place in Las Vegas. [He recently moved to Las Vegas.]
when the kid runs away and the mother is desperate to find him, she tells the cops on the phone "if I had a car I'd be out finding my kid myself" we know from earlier scenes that the bum fixed her truck and so she does have a car. [When Arlene is yelling at the police on the phone and says that she does not have a car, she is telling the truth because even though the car is now working, it doesn't have any wheels.]
