教学反思：
一、教学成效
- 借“世界奇迹”图片、视频激活兴趣，自然导入话题；
- 以“匹配→问答→听读→输出”分层任务，串联词汇、信息梳理与语言运用；
- 依托对话自然渗透时态，避免语法孤立讲解。
二、问题不足
- 结对活动中基础薄弱学生参与被动，发音训练未针对个体纠错；
- 时态仅停留在“识别”，未解析 语境差异（如现在完成时“经历” vs 一般现在时“事实”），学生易混用；
- 对奇迹的 文化背景（如兵马俑历史意义、三峡工程价值）挖掘浅显，认知停留在“名称+特征”。
三、改进方向
- 互动公平：提供“观点模板卡”（如 I prefer... because... ），设“轮值发言”规则；针对 terracotta 等长难词，拆分音节、专项纠音；
- 时态突破：提取对话“典型句对”（如 I’ve never seen... vs I never see... ），解析功能差异，设计“时态辨析闯关题”；
- 文化延伸：课前布置“奇迹文化海报”任务，课中增设“背景故事分享”，结合纪录片片段（如三峡工程解析）深化认知。
