Teaching Reflection:
In my opinion,our lesson is successful. My reasons are as follows:
Firstly,the teaching aims were quite clear. All the activities were focused on the theme:“ School Life”, and were developed to reach the teaching goal. And all these were designed according to the students' real life.
Secondly, task-based teaching method was successfully adopted. Actually,all the activities arranged in the lesson were tasks for the students to perform, and this led students to have sufficient practice. In order to fulfill the final task, the students should use their target language.
Thirdly,in this lesson the teacher designed different activities to arouse the students' interests of learning English.Such as :pair work, group work, discussion, practice, and so on. So students were eager to speak and use English in class. For example, the interview not only stimulated the students,but also made the students use the target language willingly.
Fourthly, I tried hard to create real life situation to help the students to learn, to practise, and to communicate. In this special way, the students became more interested and more active in thinking and speaking. I created relax, happy and friendly atmosphere to help them get information in a new learning style, that is, to learn independently, to learn actively, and to research together. Also, the students learned to cooperate with each other in group work.
