What Doesn't Belong Task Cards

(0)
This resource contains 68 different task cards where students have to look at the times on the individual task cards and work out which image doesn't belong to the theme of the others. This is a great way for students to work on their category sorting skills.

Great for time fillers, end of lessons, focussing periods or just general addition to lessons. Comes with answer key for your quick reference.
