Nice. Phrasal verbs are much more essential than the publishing/edu establishment would have us believe.

Here’s a great little resource for unbridled oral output: Truth or Dare for English Language Learners at http://www.speekeezy.ca/ Nice to have in the resource room for end of term, that nasty sub call-in gap or just good old-fashioned classroom fun. Banter in a Box.
