It is really an amazing moment for all of us to be gathered here today, for the purpose of Reading.In order to promote English reading and research in primary schools, professional development of teachers, further optimize classroom teaching and improve the quality of education and teaching, with the assistance of Wuxi Municipal Academy of Education and Science to promote the development of teachers in The Xi Shan District and the Institute of Foreign Research, almost 300 teachers both from private schools and public schools participated in the seminar.
WUIS was established 6 years ago.During these 6 years, a lot of effort and studies from our dedicated teachers, went into Reading Research and Development from both East and West teaching sources.With all subjects together (Guided Reading, Extensive Reading, ELA Writing, Science and Topic -which are all based on book reading, inquiry and researching), our students have achieved great results in English as a whole. We are continuously looking for other better methods/techniques to improve our teaching and promotion of Reading, not only for student learning but for student enjoyment too.
It is with great pleasure that we invite all the teachers from different schools gathered here today to communicate with each other, to learn from the experienced teachers, to benefit our students’ learning of reading.
We enjoyed the lessons today, The Magic Pen from teacher Zhuang Yanfei, Chicken Licken from teacher Li Shan, and Light from teacher Wang Rui. Those lessons from those experienced teachers are more than learning and sharing, that is also a way to show reading from different perspectives. All teachers here, they were deeply impressed by our students’ English learning skills, positive learning enthusiasm, diverse ways of thinking and confident stage style at presenting and performing.
Lin Hong, a teacher and researcher in English at the Primary School of Teacher’s Continuing Education school in Changping District, Beijing, gave a high evaluation to the reading demonstration course brought by our teachers, and gave a high evaluation and recognition to the language and thinking ability of our students. Lin Hong also highlighted good points from three lessons, picture circle from teacher Zhuang Yanfei, application skills from teacher Wang Rui. In particular, teacher Li Shan’s reading lesson clearly presented the whole storyline, stimulating students to think, each student’s reading ability is fully developed. In the afternoon, Lin Hong herself brought a wonderful lecture to share with all teachers here today.
Thanks for all amazing experts and teachers’ fantastic sharing. We believe everyone has been enriched by it. Reading is the key to learning, so let’s pass this key to more children. We read to know, we are not alone, then knowledge gains value when we use and share it. Just like today. Thank you again! We sincerely appreciate your participation and contributions, Let’s keep in touch, see you next time.
