Odd One Out

"We are all odd in some way or other"
Janie, aged 11




Present students with 3 objects and ask them "which is the odd one out?"
In pairs, they discuss (pair, share & despair?) and must give reasons to justify their choices.
Ask, "could it be a different one?"
English - give 3 characters to compare and contrast, or 3 non-fiction texts a la unit 1 GCSE!
Ideal for any subject...


Which of these could be the odd one out?

  • fish, bird, frog
  • bus, car, lorry
  • 9, 5, 10
  • sun, moon, stars
  • George, Slim, Candy
  • true, good, beautiful
  • Spain, France, Germany
  • police officer, fire officer, hospital worker
  • study, learn, revise
  • argue, debate, discuss...
