T: Look at this picture. Who is the man. The first man landed on the moon. He is an America astronaut and his name is Armstrong.

Actually, he failed finally, but his spirit encourages all Chinese people for ages and under his influence, some nationalistic figures who are knowledgeable and tough work together. Although there are lots of failures and challenges along the way, they are always optimistic  and finally overcome all the difficulties. And then they make some achievements. The first Chinese man-made earth satellite comes out. So proud of country, aha?

Ss: Yep!

T: After that, we talented Chinese with a big taikong dream, insist on being united and industrious. Later, China's first manned space mission was launched. And up to now, Chang’e 3 becomes the first Chinese spacecraft to soft-land on the moon and our taikonauts can even deliver lectures in space. Talented, adventurous, industrious, knowledgeable, optimistic, nationalistic, ambitious, united, tough. It is these good qualities that make up of Chinese taikonauts.

 (Time flies quickly. It's the end of this class. Let's have a break. Have a good day. See you tomorrow.)

Stage 6 Self-reflection (教學(xué)反思)

Overall impression:

The objectives of this class are basically achieved. After the class, most students are able to read a piece of news efficiently using the photographs, headline and subheadings; they can for specific information while reading; they can tell the features and basic structure of news; finally, about the Post-reading Stage, most students can make a broadcast in groups using what we've learned.

Students can be aware that prediction can help get the right information about a topic. And they can locate specific information by focusing on the first or last sentence and finding out the key words. They know how to broadcast a piece of news accurately and properly.  And some of them can even do a more imaginative job than I’ve imagined before the class. So proud of them. While they’re discussing, their cooperative spirit were built up by pair work and group work. I’m happy that their motivation and interest in learning English have been strengthened. And they have become more confident while speaking in English.

From this class, students’ patriotism has been stimulated through the understanding of China's space development process. And they knew what a taikonaut is and what good qualities they have. Looking forward to their future progress.

In this class, much time of dealing with new words and expressions are saved by a simple and interesting chant, and a lot of time are spent in guiding students to experience and think about the topic.

Advantages:

1. The warm-up chant activity is very novel and can greatly stimulate students' learning enthusiasm, so that students can get into the role as soon as possible. And this part better review the vocabulary we’ve learned last class, and inspire students to think about the topic of this class. It makes the classroom form diversified and helps the student better master the unit key vocabulary.

2. Setting the learning objectives is a good method for students learning. With the theory of starting with the end, learning with learning objectives helps students have more control over the learning process. And in the final Self-valuation Stage, students can timely monitor their own learning situation.

3. Timely summary is helpful. Mid-summary can help students timely sort out and consolidate what they have learned; Final-Summary at the end of class can help students review the knowledge of this lesson while it is still clear, and help students develop the habit of summarizing and making an overall reflection on the learning situation of this lesson based on the learning objectives.

4. The atmosphere of the class was pretty active, most of the students were involved in it and had a great time, which achieved the most important teaching objectives.

5. After learning, students could have a positive attitude towards the difficulties they will meet in future learning process and have much passion and love for our motherland.

Disadvantages:

The instruction words can be much more clear and simple which is the weakness of mine. The cultivation of students’ reading strategies is not accomplished overnight, which needs to be further strengthened.
