Even or odd? Check the last digit

A number is even if it can be split into two equal groups - and the quick test is the ones digit: numbers ending in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 are even; the rest are odd. The other digits don’t matter, which surprises a lot of students.

How to use it

Have students look only at the last digit. Connect “even” to pairs (every item has a partner) and “odd” to one left over. This links naturally to skip counting by 2s, which lands only on even numbers.

👩‍🏫 Teacher note

A number is even if its ones digit is 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8 - meaning it can be split into two equal groups (pairs). Only the ones digit matters.

🏠 Parent note

Look at the last digit only. If it ends in 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8, it is even; otherwise it is odd.

Common Mistakes to Watch For

  • Looking at the wrong digit
  • Forgetting that 0 makes a number even
