7、力表现自己，做到最好。四个任务所侧重的训练学生的语言能力的要求也各有不同，他们分别侧重训练学生的听、说、读、写的能力。把任务活动放在小组中进行，学生有更多的时间来运用英语表达自己的思想。Post-reading1、Do you want to have a try?Fill in the blanks and try to retell the text.2、Activities:（1）Listen to the song and fill in theblanks.（2）Game Time- Animals Jump .Each student hold a picture of an an
