Reflection 整堂课用两个大组进行比赛形式贯穿始终，有Polly says游戏和宾果游戏开头，朗读比赛在中，猜词比赛在后，课堂气氛热烈欢快。单词处理原则是低起点，小步伐，强记忆，快反馈，并得到的很好的效果。课文在听力练习中掌握文章大意，在朗读比赛中不仅练习发音还能因为多次朗读而充分了解文章内容，阅读后的判断正误和填空练习检验阅读理解程度，并能用老师提供的例句和句型表达表格内容，为后面自己表达输出英语做准备。最后用英语仿写介绍OK这个手势达到了预期目的。但有一点不足，就是在Presentation环节中，对单词的讲解还应更细致，体现单词记忆规律，还应让学生多接触例句，也可以把词汇和歌曲结合，寓教于乐。
