Detailed Description
Students will learn twelve phrasal verbs using ‘turn’ in the pre-class activities. Then, in class, they’ll consolidate the meaning, check their knowledge, and then be encouraged to use those phrasal verbs in speaking exercises. The strong use of images helps to associate the terms and the meanings in students’ minds.
