Teaching reflection Traditional poem teaching could not fully attract students’ interests, this lesson enables the combination between material reading and visual effect. Thus, students are able to remember the knowledge learned in the lesson by both literature and animation performance.Notice the time control. Review and lead-in 5 mins Poem performance 5 mins Detail learning 16 mins Creative inspiration 10 mins Layout homework 4 minsClassification of questionsMemory questions: Do you remember the construction of the poem What’s the rhyme of the poem we learned last time ...Inference questions:What’s the main idea about the poem after we read the material Why does the old man sit near the bus stop ...Creative questions:What other helpful jobs do you know around us What do you want to be in our life ...Critical questions:Is the old man always smiling Do these people really dislike smiling Do you want to have no smile in the world ...According to the record of the lesson, the largest number of questions is the Inference question. But there are just about 5 questions related to the memory question. This result shows that more questions to recall students memories about knowledge they have learned should be added in the lesson.Enlightenment After teaching this theme lesson about poem, I find that students will contradict the learning about poem at first. During the guiding and leading, students gradually gain confidence and interests towards this topic. From this experience, I realize that teachers should try to make the teaching methods multiple and learning content more attractive. Using multimedia technology and electrified education equipment to enrich the content is much necessary for modern classroom. Besides, cooperation learning in reading lesson works a lot. More parts of team work can be designed in the next lesson. In this lesson, there are some group work in detail reading and creative inspiration, which can help students understand the deeper meaning and work out the practice by cooperation.
