We started the lesson saying the opposite adjective of a given one. Somebody did not know the meaning of crowded, nor its opposite, empty. Another interesting pair is reserved/outgoing.

Students read homework, which was about complaints. I enjoyed listening to them. Remember you can complain about + noun or gerund, complain that + clause. You can also complain of as in  Complain of shortness of breath and a cough.

We studied some two-part verbs or phrasal verbs: turn down, turn off, tun on, put away, pick up, take out, take off, put on, clean up, hang up, put out. 

Remember that in English you turn on or turn off a faucet or a tap. 

For homework: write some short conversations - request and answer - using the phrasal verbs we are studying. 
Example:
 Please, take the groceries home and put them away, I need to park the car. 
Ok, I´ll take them home and put the frozen things in the freezer, but I´ll wait for you to put away the other things.

Something else: please, look at your notes and make a list with 20 verbs, 20 nouns and 20 adjectives you have learned ( or at least intended to learn) during this term.
