Got an email from Nick, a friend and attendee of a workshop that I gave a while back. He sent me some of his students’ sketches:

Apparently the language point was ‘put on’ and ‘put off’:
- Put on weight
- Put on the TV
- Put up petrol prices
- Put up your hand
- Put up posters
- Didn’t put on his clothes
Nick tells me that his students enjoyed seeing the images at later dates (the drawings were scanned and presented full size on a projector). This gave them an opportunity to revise the various meanings of the two phrasal verbs.

Great way of remembering phrasal verbs, phrases or vocab. Will be using that myself. Thanks.
