Blackboard Design:

This is our house

House A House B House C

there is there are prepositions

Reflection:

This is a new and practice class. I used many ways to help the students

practice the usage of “there is” and “there are” . Then the students were

supposed to make sentences with them. The students were all involved well.

Some top students can make a short composition by using the target sentences.

However,a lot of students are familiar with “there is” and “there are”. If I

spent some time having the students practiceYesorNoquestions, it would be

better.
