Reflection
1.Most of the new words the students have learned when they were in
Grade One. So I teach some words for them, especially the adjectives such as hearted-shaped, square and so on. I aim to wide the students’ volume of the words.
2.I invite the students to introduce themselves in order to us the
adjectives reasonably. Though they can’t say it thoroughly correct, they have dear to say more words.
