Revision 4
The pupils must clarify which theme most of the pictures belong 
to and choose the odd one by putting a tick near it.
This is not a testing task, but it tests the pupils’ knowledge of 
the previous topics and teaches them to think logically. it enables 
the pupils to make their own decisions as well. As this kind of 
task is new for children, you have to spend much time to explain 
the concept of the task.
As an example, you must explain the task in detail and show 
the pupils how and what to do. Ask how many rows there are. Get 
the answer four. so there are four tasks.
in the first task the pupils should look only at the horizontal 
row. You must show where it is and ask the pupils to count how 
many pictures there are in the row. in total 5. Then say that one 
out of the 5 pictures is odd, and it must not be there. There is 
an odd picture in each row. how is it possible to find it? Let’s 
see what pictures there are in the first row. Then ask the pupils 
what is drawn in the first picture. Woman. Who can she be in 
the fami ly? of course, mother. Thus, the picture is connected 
with the topic “family”. Let’s look further. it is the picture of 
a balloon. What topic? True, “toys”. Let’s go on. A man, a girl 
and a boy. What topic do they belong to? “Family”. so, we have 
4 pictures in total on the topic “family” and one picture on the 
topic “toys”. Which picture is odd? True, the balloon. Therefore, 
we will put a tick near the picture with the balloon. 
in such manner, you should explain the second row. each time 
give the pupils more opportunity to work independently. each 
time keep asking the pupils to explain why they think so.
next four pictures must be found out by pupils on them own. 
After finishing the task, make pupils to explain their answers.
