PHRASAL VERBS GAME - Which Phrasal verb (upper-intermediate and above)



This is a question game I used with my upper intermediate students at Welcome Language Centre, based on the book Countdown to FCE. You can divide the class in two groups. The group with more correct answers wins. You can include other phrasal verbs according to what you have been teaching. Alternatevely you can create a memory game including phrasal verbs or idioms and their meanings.

WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “TAKE CONTROL” OF STH? take over
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “EDUCATE/RAISE” A CHILD? bring up
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “UNDERSTAND”? turn in
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “START/BEGIN A NEW ACITIVITY”? take up
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “to speak angrily at someone because they have done something wrong/criticise someone”? tell off
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “to feel pleased and excited about something that is going to happen”? look forward to
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “to be similar to an older member of your family in appearance or character”? take after
WHICH PHRASAL VERB MEANS “LEAVE THE GROUND/REMOVE (clothes, for example)”? take off
WHAT IS A TODDLER? a young child, especially one who is learning or has recently learned to walk
WHAT IS A PENSIONER? a person who receives a pension, especially the government pension given to old people
