S.A.D.

It is winter in Canada!
What kinds of winter sports do you play?
Skiing, skating, hockey?

It is a good idea to get out and do some sports.
Did you know that 'get out' is a phrasal verb?

skiing, skating, playing.... these are all gerunds - this is a noun that looks like a verb

Try this sentence:

I like to go shopping.  Which word is the gerund?

Many people don't go out much in the winter and because of the lack of sunshine they get:
S.A.D.
This is an acronym for what?
type in S.A.D. into the Google search bar and see what comes up......

(to come up is also a phrasal verb)

Don't forget..... come to class, ask a teacher and learn some more.
