Reflection The main purpose of the class is to make students master the imperative sentences and modal verbs to talk about rules and truly understand the importance of rules in our daily life especially in schools. To achieve the teaching objectives, I used role-play, pair work, task-based teaching methods and listening activities. However, after the class, I find some activities are difficult for some students so it is necessary for me to design assignments for students in different levels. Besides, I think I didn’t give students enough time for practice and just wanted to push the procedures and it would be better for me to improve the teaching procedure for future classes. All in all, in order to realize the new concept of teaching, I think I need to do more research on the textbook and learn more from other teachers.
