The project

Sam hasn't done his homework again. Can he avoid getting in trouble?

Instructions

Watch the video. It's full of phrasal verbs, which are red in the comic. Then do the exercises to check you understand and can use the phrasal verbs.

Discussion

Do you hand in your homework on time? Have you ever made up an excuse about it? Did the teacher fall for it?

Honestly, I always hand in my homework on time. However, because I was too busy, I once didn’t realize I hadn’t done the assignment until the day before it was due. When I finally finished it, it was already 10 pm and I was very tired.

Honestly, I always try to hand in my homework in time. However, sometimes there are moments when I didn't do my homework, so I have to solve this situation. I may do it while breaks at school or just say I'll hand it in another day. Mostly, it works.

Of course, mostly I hand my homework on time. But from time to time I can`t do it and I have to make up something for teacher. Yes, sure, I have to make up an excuse about my homework. Actually, I did it, mostly, all distance education. Certainly, they did. But not all my teachers are falling for that kind of excuse.

I always do my homework in time. And I understand people who forget and didn't do their projects. But in my country (in Ukraine) there so much execises to do and we can't choose which subject we want to learn. I have the same classmates for the all grades and all of them have about 12 subjects; 7 lessons every day.

For some reason, I don't like it when people don't hand in their work. I have a friend who never does his homework on time, she makes up excuses, and to my surprise the teachers fall for it almost every time

Don't let people like that affect you. Trust in yourself because you should know that you're great at everything you do!
