Step 8. Homework
The design of a reading passage is of great importance. We have to consider whether the teaching steps are suitable for our students or not. What’s more, we should be able to deliver the lesson to the students in an attractive way so that the students can be more interested in this lesson and we can achieve better results and effects. In this lesson, the steps are a little complicated for the students and they might feel it boring to finish all the tasks. I should change the design of the reading steps in more forms and simplify them.
