教学反思：

1. 对于学生的预设不够充分，因此在复习词汇环节以及新词提取环节，学生的反应不如预期的好，从而影响了整节课的教学节奏；

2. 课堂的互动不是很丰富，从而没有充分调动学生的学习积极性，在小组讨论环节学生没有发挥小组合作的优势；

3. 词汇复习课的重点到底在哪里，我觉得按照话题进行复习，多尝试运用思维导图的模式进行教学，注重lexical chunks的教学，而不是单一词汇的教学，使得词汇学习是散乱的状态，不利于提升词汇学习的效率。以话题为中心进行延展，既可以激发学生的原有话题词汇，也可以进行相关词汇的补充，不会让学生觉得负担过重，也可以进行不同梯度的联系，从词到句，从句到段，从段到章，层层深入，最终回到运用话题词汇进行话题写作。
