| | Teaching Reflection
| In the this period, most students can do oral exercises under the guidance of the teacher, and some students can complete the sentences in 3b. The students must learn how to send, accept and refuse invitations. We always learn grammar when we have enough language knowledge. When dealing with grammar, we can get the students to conclude or sum up what they have learned in this unit. Through the grammar focus, the students can clearly review the knowledge structure of this class. After they learn the main structure, the students should practice in different activities. And we'd better give them some written work after speaking and reading.
