Lesson evaluation
The objectives of the lesson were achieved due to the fact that Ss were well prepared. What is more important they participated in the lesson with a great interest and there were no problems with discipline. The strongest side of the lesson was cooperation between T and pupils. If I had a chance to give this lesson once more I would add one more game to give Ss some fun because I know they love games.
