Word Pairs and Odd One Out
Welcome to the chapter on Word Pairs and Odd One Out for Class 1. In this chapter, you will learn about words that go together (word pairs) and how to find the word that does not belong in a group (odd one out). By the end of this chapter, you will be able to match word pairs and spot the odd one out easily!
Introduction
Some words are often used together because they are related. These are called word pairs. Sometimes, we see a group of words where one word is different from the others. That word is called the odd one out.
Word Pairs
Word pairs are two words that go together or are often used together.
- Salt and pepper
- Bread and butter
- Pen and paper
- Cup and saucer
- Shoes and socks
- Needle and thread
Odd One Out
In a group of words, the odd one out is the word that is different from the others.
- Apple, Banana, Orange, Car (Car is the odd one out because it is not a fruit.)
- Dog, Cat, Cow, Table (Table is the odd one out because it is not an animal.)
- Red, Blue, Green, Chair (Chair is the odd one out because it is not a color.)
