By this way, they would have a mind about friendship and know some useful words on friendship; this will lay the base for writing.
Step 3 Reading a letter

教后反思：
经过一段时间的悉心准备，终于完成了这节课。总体感受比较轻松。因为以前在讲作文课的时候，没有这样的构思，只顾着自己一个人讲，没有给学生练习的余地，只是留作业给他们，校对后也没有把整体性或个别性的错误进行反馈，以致使学生们的错误得不到制止。而且以前自己在讲作文课的时候，通常学生们都有一种感受，虽然老师讲过了可是依然不知从何下手，没有东西可写。这节课我针对这个问题作了很细心的设计，每一步都有引导学生去说，并且重要的环节，重要的词都有在黑板上呈现出来，这样让同学们写的时候根据关键词自己也会写出一两句话来。最重要的是这节课中，我利用了实物投影仪对几名同学的作文在大家面前进行当场审批，这样可以让同学们对于普遍性的错误明确的认识并改正。得到了及时反馈的效果。
当然这只是把自己与自己从前的教学进行比较有了一个小小的进步。而对于真正的教学标准还差的很远很远。我感谢给我评课的各位老师，他们都给了我非常诚恳的意见。尤其要感谢我县教研员陈建霞老师和林红蕾老师的宝贵建议：应该给学生一个范文，并指出其中的经典句子与连词，可以起到示范让学生学习亮点的目的；再多给学生一点思考和合作的时间；在学生写作文期间应给予个别环节的指导，这样可以让学生的作文更有个性一点……在这里再次感谢他们的指点.
对于英语作文课的教法,还有待于探讨,怎样让老师教的轻松,学生写的更轻松,使学生灵活的运用这一门语言,我还要向各位老师请教.在教学的道路上,我的路还很长很长……
