A powerpoint for intermediate to advanced students to look at different uses of get. Often overlooked but very important, especially when used with services and talking about travelling.



Starts with lead-in, get sts to list as many uses as they can. (maybe they will use phrasal verbs and idioms too) then go through matching the function the sentence and rewriting the sentences with get.



The 2nd to last slide is meant to be a speaking activity. I recommend a ball throwing activity where STs must use get when they have the ball, then proceed to eliminate functions from the board so they must use the others as the game progresses. Add timers and rules for more advanced students. (e.g 15 seconds to make sentence and you can only use one hand if you make a mistake/don´t catch the ball)



If you want use a dice to randomly choose a function that can work too!



Enjoy!
