Lesson evaluation:

The objectives of the lesson were achieved even faster than T had planned. What’s more there was extra time to play game which was to be in case if necessary. Ss participated in the lesson with a great interest and they were good learners who learnt astonishingly fast. I was surprised a little. If I had a chance to give this lesson once more, I think I wouldn’t change anything because this lesson as far as I am concerned was successful and didn’t need any improvement. In addition I think I had a good contact with pupils because they cooperate with me willingly from the very beginning.
