An Introduction to Collocation

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Students listen to text in the form of a letter and then read the same text to determine how collocations can have different meanings. Students listen to a sample of dialogue to understand how the the usages of "make," "do," and "have" can have several different meanings in English.
