Odd one out – Global warmingTeacher’s notes

There are a number of ways to use this presentation, here are two:

• ask students up to the front of the class to click on the text or picture they think is the odd one out

• ask students to give a show of hands and click on the text or picture that was the most popular choice.

This activity requires students to choose the ‘odd one out’ from a list of three words or phrases on each slide.

Students will need to apply their knowledge of the causes and effects of global warming to decide which is the odd one out. Make sure they explain their choice.
