The odd one out might be see, as all the others are something you are actively involved in. I would have picked listen though!

It sounds batty to me. Have you tried asking the teacher?

My first thought was watch as it's the only one that's an object too.

Has to be listen surely? All the other activities involve sight! Listen obviously involves hearing!

Tend to agree. See would have been my first choice, but I think listen is just as correct, and a more reasonable choice for an eleven year old.

I agree - listen is an obvious (and surely also correct) choice for an 11 year old.

I would have gone for Listen as all the rest are done with your eyes.
You must ask the teacher and let us know please

I think your tutor was having a bad day. It must be listen.
