Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

  • Identify the correct meaning of a 'put' phrasal verb based on sentence context, choosing among multiple possible meanings for verbs like put down or put on.

  • Use the correct tense and form of a 'put' phrasal verb to complete a sentence.

  • Classify a phrasal verb sentence as transitive/intransitive and separable/inseparable.

  • Distinguish between put on and put up with as two of the most common 'put' phrasal verbs, each carrying several distinct meanings.

Teaching tips

  • Introduce the put on and put up / put up with table (page 7) as a focused mini-lesson, since the file itself calls these out as two of the most widely used 'put' phrasal verbs.

  • Assign Exercise 1 and Exercise 2 before Exercise 3, since the first two exercises check meaning and form, while Exercise 3 requires the grammar vocabulary (transitive, intransitive, separable, inseparable) introduced afterward on page 10.

  • Use the complete answer key to self-check or peer-check all three exercises before reviewing as a class, since every exercise item has a corresponding answer.

Skills covered

  • Phrasal verb meaning recognition — students match 'put' phrasal verbs, several with multiple meanings, to the correct definition and example sentence.

  • Contextual verb-form completion — students supply the correct tense and preposition combination to complete a sentence, such as putting on or put up with, across two fill-in exercises.

  • Grammatical classification — students identify whether a phrasal verb sentence is transitive or intransitive, and separable or inseparable, in an eight-item multiple-choice exercise.

  • Multi-meaning disambiguation — students work through nine distinct meanings of put on and seven of put up / put up with in a single reference table.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource
