Default phrasal verb

Hey everyone,
Do you have any idea or game for teaching “two part verbs”, such as turn up or turn down and the nouns or pronouns that come with them, like “turn the TV down” or “turn down the TV” and “turn it down”. Any idea for teaching them indirectly?
Thanks in advance.

I use flashcards and play bingo to solidify the vocabulary.

Then I play a rock.scissors, paper battle where each player makes a sentence using the vocabulary from each card. The game is called Get 'em. The phrasal verbs flashcards and Get 'em cards can be printed from here: phrasal verb flashcards

Using the same images, you can also make board games, reading and writing worksheets, mazes, crosswords and word searches with phrasal verbs here: phrasal verb worksheets

Wow!!! Mark, I had no idea that your site has materials for phrasal verbs! I recently taught my students 18 phrasal verbs! Unfortunately, most of the 18 are different from the ones you used.

ha, ha! Yeah, all kinds of little things here and there. I think it's cool if people can discover something new and useful on the site from time to time.

What were the phrasal verbs you were teaching?

there are also preposition of movement flashcards and preposition of movement worksheets. These are really good to do before phrasal verbs to give students a foundation of the common prepositions for many of the phrasal verb collocations.

I teach adults. I recently taught my class the following phrasal verbs (with definitions, of course):
Inseparable: get better, get well, get over, go over, break into, break up, find out, look for, run out (have none left), shop around (there was a song with this phrasal verb many years ago), take off, and work out.
Separable: put away, put together, put off, look over, throw away and think over.
I only used phrasal verbs that had 2 words and were not too hard to define.

I like to play a game with a bunch of verbs on the board and the students have to match them with prepositions.

It makes for a lot of combinations.

Eg. Get back, Throw back
Look back, Look out

i explain it better here:

So with the phrasal verb cards, how does one player "win" against another card.

As an example, if I throw "get out", and you throw "get back", who wins?
