Blackboard design
Reflection There are too many activities in class. The teacher need to delete some activities. The educational design should be about the real life of students. Some activities should be designed to help students adapt what they have learned into their lives. English is the language. Therefore, in addition to the classroom effect, it is also necessary to let students read more, talk more and practice more. In addition, language is the carrier of culture, and to do a good job in listening, students must have certain knowledge of British and American history and language and culture.
