Which One Doesn't Belong? - Exercise

This Which One Doesn't Belong? Concept Builder is comprised of 32 questions. The questions are divided into eight different question groups. Questions in the same group are rather similar to one another; they each tend to have the same 3-4 representations with the order being scrambled from one version of the question to the next. The Concept Builder is coded to select at random a question from each group until a student is successful with that group of questions.

There are two levels of difficulty by which the student can progress through the Concept Builder. Those two difficulty levels are differentiated as follows:
 

• Masters Level: Question Groups 1-4
• Wizard Level: Question Groups 1-8

The questions from each group are shown below. Teachers are encouraged to view the questions in order to judge which level of difficulty is most appropriate for their classes. Some teachers may want to provide students two options. For instance, it would be profitable for a student to complete the Concept Builder at the Masters Level in order to gain some confidence and then to be challenged to complete the activity at the Wizard Level.
