高二上册《Appendix》优秀教案

This is a large mixed ability class, which contains 41 students from at least three of the categories of very able, able, less able and unable. Such a class poses serious problems and makes English teaching and learning frustrating. Most students tend to be passive and silent in classroom learning, with quite a few short of dynamics to participate in activities or cooperate with peers. In addition, though a lot of reading has been done, further guidance is still needed on their interaction with the texts, especially in terms of thinking in the process of reading.
