Teaching Reflection: This class focuses on the grammar part of Unit 1, Book 6, the subjunctive mood in if-clause. After the class, students can master the features of the subjunctive mood in if-clause and can use it correctly. However, during the class, some students didn’t take active part in the class. What’s more, because time is limited, some groups didn’t have chance to show their interesting stories.
