Help the shivering student decide what to do before stepping into the snow. Choose the correct phrasal verb to complete the sentence.

"It's absolutely freezing outside!" shivering Sam said. "Make sure you _____ your heavy winter jacket before you leave the house."

The correct answer is put on.

The phrasal verb "put on" means to dress yourself with a piece of clothing.

Here is why the other options don't work:

• Take off is the exact opposite; it means to remove clothing. (Not a great idea in a snowstorm!)

• Try on means to wear something briefly to see if it fits, usually when shopping.

• Look for means to search for a lost item.
