You can change any of these settings above. Press "New problems" for a fresh set with the same settings, or pick Version A to Z to print different sheets for neighboring desks. The answer key always matches.
About which word does not belong?
Every row has three words from one topic (animals, food, clothes ...) and one word from another. Children read the row, find what three words share and circle the odd one out.
Topics that are close in meaning, such as weather and nature, never share a row, so there is always one clear answer. Choose short words for early readers.
Printing
US Letter or A4, portrait: choose your paper size above. Print at 100 percent (actual size). Use "Black and white" for the copier, or "Color" for display pages and mini books.
