Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Select the correct "look" phrasal verb to complete a sentence from context (Exercise 1).
Match a "look" phrasal verb to its intended meaning in a given sentence (Exercise 2).
Classify a phrasal verb's sentence pattern as transitive/intransitive and separable/inseparable (Exercise 3).
Use "look" phrasal verbs conversationally to answer open discussion questions (Exercise 4).

Teaching tips

Introduce the reference and grammar pages before Exercise 1, since several fill-in-the-blank items accept more than one correct phrasal verb and rely on students already knowing multiple meanings of the same verb.
Review the transitive/separable/inseparable grammar page as a class before assigning Exercise 3 independently, since that exercise depends directly on those definitions.
Use Exercise 4's conversation questions as a speaking-practice follow-up once the written exercises are checked against the key.

Skills covered

Phrasal verb usage in context — students choose or supply the correct "look" phrasal verb to complete a sentence (Exercises 1-2).
Grammatical pattern recognition — students classify phrasal verbs as transitive-separable, transitive-inseparable, or intransitive using real example sentences (Exercise 3).
Literal vs. metaphorical meaning — the reference page pairs each phrasal verb with a literal and, where applicable, a figurative example sentence.
Conversational application — Exercise 4's ten open questions ask students to use the target phrasal verbs in spoken responses.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Can more than one phrasal verb correctly complete a sentence in Exercise 1?

Yes — the exercise directions note that more than one answer may be correct, and the key lists an alternate for item 7 ("Look at / Look into").

What does Exercise 3 actually test, beyond vocabulary?

It tests grammar pattern recognition — students classify each sentence's phrasal verb as transitive-separable-by-choice, transitive-separable-by-obligation, transitive-inseparable, or intransitive, using the definitions given on the preceding page.
