Abdul and I continued working on phrasal verbs. We have now
gotten to the list of transitive phrasal verbs with three parts. This was
important because for some of the verbs he was trying to leave off the last
preposition which would change the entire meaning of the phrase for example to look up vs to look up to. We continued through the list. The biggest challenge
is coming up with good examples and knowing the rule when something he says
sounds awkward but I don’t know why it is incorrect. For one of the phrases break in on I described that you can say
“Sorry to break in” meaning the verb
to break in or to interrupt but if you wanted to put the object in, “Sorry to break in on your conversation”
you would need the preposition on in
there.
Next week I am planning to make a review test because it
will be our next to last meeting. It will be fill-in-the-blank phrasal verbs. I
think this will be good for him because I am sure he will do well on it and it
will make him feel confident because he has learned so much.
