Teaching Demonstration #1(Taylor Kim)

Textbook/Chapter   

Topic/Lesson Title: Physical Appearance

Source of Inspiration/ Experimental Goal      Teachers and students haven’t had any chance to meet each other face to face because of the breakout of COVID 19.  To relieve the thirst for meeting friends, classmates, and teachers, we can have vocabulary class to learn physical appearance and talk about their appearance with friends.      This class idea and structure are borrowed from Chris Westergaard’s youtube channel(https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCeEcVAqDA7Ro8K-CL_8apVQ) and I have customized it for my class and the class was always successful. I had to customize it again for the online setting.
