二、学习者特征分析

 

After one year’s English learning in Grade Seven, the students in Grade Eight already have a foundation of vocabulary and grammar, reducing the difficulty of learning new knowledge. Students aged 13-14 are very active in thinking and full of curiosity, but their attention is not concentrated enough. Therefore, the teacher attracts students’ attention by showing pictures and videos in teaching to stimulate students’ interest. Students’ independent learning ability is not strong, so the teacher designs a series of individual activities and group activities to encourage students to speak more English, develop students’ independent learning ability, cultivate students’ awareness of cooperative learning, and experience the happiness of learning English.
