    this is a nice lesson but my students (and me) were very confused by question 8.

    1. Abi

      Hi Harriet! Thanks for your comment 🙂 The idea behind ex. 8 is that your students work on other collocations apart from the ones mainly targeted in the lesson. So, what else can you ‘check’ other than ‘your phone’? You can check your email, or you can check messages. What else can you ‘post’ apart from ‘pictures’? You can post stories, or you can post TikToks. Hope this helps!
