If you keep a notebook of new vocabulary one idea for recording phrasal verbs is to categorize them by verbs. Create a section for a particular verb such as 'make' and list all the phrasal verbs including this word along with a sentence demonstrating the meaning. This will be particulalry useful with phrasal verbs that have more than one meaning.
