Much older than the Great Wall, Stonehenge is one of the world’s most fascinating, but least understood historical sites. Every year, thousands of tourists come to admire Stonehenge’s beauty and to wonder about how and why it was built. Stonehenge's original face The stones we see today represent Stonehenge in ruin. Many of the original stones have fallen or been removed by previous generations for home construction or road repair. There has been serious damage to some of the smaller bluestones resulting from close visitor contact. Teaching Design

At the same time, students can learn to be cooperative.
Part4: Question Time and homework( 2minutes)
I’ll leave the last 2 minutes for the students to ask questions. It’s another chance for them to study autonomously.
The homework : Add more information and finish your own mind map after class.
Purpose: 1.According to the basic teaching theory from Robert Mills Gagné: “Every student is unique, every student wants to play a role in the class.” I have to try my best to make my class as lively and interesting as possible. Then all my students could find their positions in my lesson. Just as the movie says, “ Not one less”.2.Transfer the reading ability to writing ability.
