In this part, I print pictures of the shark, the dolphin and the boy and put them on the blackboard. The colorful pictures make up the structure of this reading passage, through which, students can get a clear understanding of the relationship among the roles mentioned. Besides, it saves much time.

Self-comment During my teaching，I tried my best to get my class alive and encourage the students to talk with each other in English. With the help of the multimedia devices,

the teaching procedures are finished in a pleasant and easy way. I am glad that students enjoyed this class.

Still, I failed to divide the students into groups in a proper way. That’s partly caused by the set of the desks in the classroom. Also, I forgot to declare the winner. What’s more, I felt it a pity that not all students took an active part in this class, a few of them seemed to be shy and dared

not to put up their hands. I should show more patience and give them more encouragement in my future teaching. As teachers, to make our English classrooms shine with vitality, we are laid with heavy burden. There is still a long way to go. I will try my best to achieve this goal.
