4. Brief Statements Based on the Unit
This unit mainly tells us the difficulties that the disabled people may face. The text “Disabled? Not me!” shows us a middle school student—Zhong Xiaowen, who could only move around in her wheelchair, could overcome lots of difficulties, and finally succeeded. From her success, we learn something important. There is nothing difficult in the world if you stick to it. When you meet with difficulty in your life and study, please don’t lose heart.

7. Part 2 Deal with Teaching Material and Students
According to the text and the reality of students' learning ability, we know that the content of the text is easy for them to understand, but how to improve the students’ reading skill and how to help the disabled to build up the spirit of “being stronger, independent and equal to normal people in activities” is not so easy.
Therefore setting up a good language atmosphere and giving them enough real examples to stimulate their leaning passion is very important, meanwhile, the use of multi-media is also helpful.

28. Disabled? Not Me! other great things I can do.”
“Sometimes I wonder why they call me disabled. I have learnt to live with my body as it is and adjusted my way of life. Maybe it is time for the rest of society to accept me as I am and get used to the fact that while I may not be able to walk, there are many
other great things I can do.”

34. Part 5. Teaching evaluation and reflection
During the teaching process, the teacher is dominant in the classroom with multi-media assistant technology on the object of over-all education to practice students' reading, speaking, listening and writing. Meanwhile the whole class is conducted in a competition, so it is very active and students’ interest in learning is obviously represented. In addition, students play an important role in class to review and study new knowledge and then improve English communicative ability. The class design has the strong points that traditional teaching lacks in.
The advantages fall into the following points: First, it can enrich students’ information. Second, students can understand the text profoundly. Third, some students who are active in class and know widely will show their outstanding ability to study. Finally, some students who are weak in learning ability also can finish all the demanded tasks in a free and easy atmosphere and improve the recognition of helping the disabled.
