Objective & content
Vocabulary topic: family members. By the end, A1 students can sort familiar words into a category and spot the word that does not belong. This one-page worksheet has 5 lines of four words: students circle the odd one out in each line, and an answer key page gives each answer with a short reason. Print-ready A4, ideal as a quick vocabulary check or lesson starter.
Pedagogical guide
This is a pure vocabulary-categorisation task with no grammar point: use it to revise words already taught, not to introduce new ones. In every line three words belong to the topic and the odd one out is an object or a piece of clothing, so students can decide by meaning alone. Read each line aloud so that pronunciation does not get in the way of the task. Use the reasons in the answer key to prompt short spoken justifications.
Suggested procedure
- (3 min) Do line 1 together on the board: read the four words aloud and ask why one of them does not belong.
- (6 min) Students circle the odd one out in lines 2 to 5 on their own, then compare answers in pairs.
- (4 min) Check as a class with the answer key: for each line, elicit the category and the odd one out.
Materials & prerequisites
Print A4 (the worksheet and the answer key page). A low-ink black-and-white version is also available. Assumes students already know the vocabulary of the topic (family members).
