Self-reflection

1.The advantage of this class:

Before the first reading, T asks students to think about the questions they want to know, and

then solve their questions through reading one by one, this can increase stude nts ’ interest about the passage and make the reading more effective. Through finding out the three clues of this passage, the students can clearly understand the passage, and it is also useful to their retelling of the story later.

2.The disadvantage of this class:

1.) The contents is too much for the students to grasp in one period. Especially, the warming up occupies too much time.

2.) Although T asks the students to raise questions by themselves and answer them while reading,

if T ask other students to answer the questions they put forward before, it will be better.

3.) This class should be arranged into 2 periods. (45min/period)
