Question-and-answer activity teaching method

Free discussion method
Pair work or individual work method
To reach my teaching aims, I’ll take advantage of some teaching aids, such as a tape recorder, multimedia, the blackboard
Part III. Analysis of the learning approach
Interest is the best teacher. But with the heavy study burden and
impact of the traditional spoon-feeding teaching, sometimes the
students may lose the interest in learning and are not independent
enough. So how to motivate them, develop their interest and build up
their self-study ability are the first things I am considering about
PartIV. The teaching process
Step 1 Warming up
Show a short film and a MTV show and ask the students the following questions：
T： How do the actors in the show express themselves?
S： By facial expressions and what they do.
T： What do we call that?
S： Body language.
T： What is body language?
S： Body language is the movements or positions of our body. We use them to show other people what we are thinking about and how we are feeling.

Step 2 Brainstorming
Show some gestures and ask the students to guess what the gestures mean.

(The same gesture has different meanings in different countries.)
Para 3： People in different countries show the same idea in different ways.
Para 4： Some gestures seem to be universal.Para 5： Perhaps the best example of universally understood body language is the smile.
*Teachers can also ask students how many parts we can divide the whole text into and what the main idea of each part is.
Part 1 (Para 1)： We use both words and body language to express our thoughts and opinions and to communicate with other people.
Part 2 (Para 2-3)： Just like spoken language, body language varies from culture to culture.
