Comparison is everywhere. When we say, Wei Huas English is better, Jessicas the best basketball player in our school, we are making comparisons. By making comparisons with others, we can find the weaknesses nesses and strong points of ourselves. Thats true to the study method. Why is someone better at English than you? Why can someone always get good marks in the exams? Have you ever made comparisons in your methods? If so, what have you drawn from your comparisons?Ask the students to show their work.S: I compared my method of studying with that of my deskmate. First, he never studies for long hours. It seems he is always free, but often gets high marks. But I used to sit and study for long each time. You know, to sit and study for hours and hours is not only boring, it creates tiredness, stress and distraction. You cannot learn if you are tired, stressed and distracted! Second, he reviews what he learned in the class immediately after class. But I never do that. Later on, I will form the habit of reviewing what have learned as soon as possible. As we all know, if we wait a few days and then make efforts to review the material, it will seem much less familiar. Third, my deskmate told me that many students do not reach their goals because they set them too high. He said his goal is to learn something new every day. It seems simple, but he gets in the habit of achieving them and soon he made great progress. The comparison startled me. I have had so many bad habits! So I decided to change my study method from now on.Step II Lead-inT: When our school has something to tell all the students, which means do you think can be used?S: Broadcasting.S: Having meetings with teachers.S: Putting on notices.T: To inform others, one of the ways it to put on notices.
