to easily access that rich source of knowledge, English is an indispensablemeans.Therefore, learning English is getting more and more attention fromsociety, especially the young generation Because English is the most commonlanguage used and communicated Each subject has its own unique and specificteaching methods For the teaching of Foreign Languages in general and withEnglish in particular, teaching methods and means of support in teaching areissues that need to be on top
In order to have a good quality English class, giving students aninspiration when learning lessons, teachers must apply unique and attractivemethods In addition, visual aids are an important and indispensable tool inevery English lesson to help teachers in imparting new knowledge, to helpstudents easily understand and absorb the knowledge that teachers impart.reached Therefore, the use of audiovisual media such as tapes, discs, projectors,pictures, real objects, models is indispensable to transmission information andteaching new knowledge to students
In the process of learning a foreign language, the use of visual aids isvery important because it is a means to express ideas and a bridge betweenlistening, speaking, reading and writing skills However, the use of visual aids isnot simple at all, especially teaching children who are at the threshold of starting
to learn a foreign language Teaching English in general and teaching vocabulary
in particular for children requires a teacher not only with language ability butalso how to get students involved in lessons To do that, teachers should createvariety in classroom activities That is why teachers need to choose andcoördinate teaching methods and techniques flexibly and flexibly to keep uppoor capital concentration in elementary school students How can I create forchildren a happy and relaxing and effective learning atmosphere is what Iwonder about
Stemming from this problem, I think that the use of visual objects isextremely necessary to create students' attention and attention on the problemspresented, to create excitement and arousing curiosity curious to explore newproblems From there, there will be many opportunities for teachers send andlearn new knowledge in a positive and effective way From the practice of usingvisual aids in teaching and there have been many good results I would like to

2.1 Theoretical basics:
Innovating teaching methods "Student-centered" is the way teachingmethod takes students as the subject in the process of understanding andexploiting antsstay awake In the teaching method innovation, visual aids have arole is extremely important can help students think highly and focus onobservation, learn and research through visual channels, building up lessonknowledge The teacher acts as a guide, designing learning activities helpsstudents collect information and process information by themselves, discover themasterpoints and main knowledge content of new lessons Organized forstudents to exploitthoroughly knowledge, building situational knowledgethrough visual channels Belongingsvisualizations are available to gather newinformation by observing drawings, real objects, and modelsavailable around us
to draw conclusions or to carve the structure and semantics for longer anddeeper
Students actively participate and learn to research knowledge, no longerlove student sitting passively absorb the knowledge of lessons presented by theteacher displayed in textbooks that actively participate in the process of learningand receivingknowledge and discover new content, knowledge of lessons
2.2 Real state before applying the experimental initiative.

Trang 4books,so on
- There are still a few students having difficulty in approaching andgrasping the new language Since then, it has a great impact on the quality ofteaching and learning
- Most of the students live in rural areas, due to the local language, sowhen reading English is not standard, often tends to pronounce English in aVietnamese way
- To the students, besides a number of children seriously, no fewerstudents only learn flower speaker, not by words engraved in the memory, notreading, writing regularly, not in that two pm When teachers ask them will notsucceed
- To the students, is also very difficult to check or guide them to learn athome Because this is a foreign language, the parents do not know It is also verydifficult problems in managing the student's home school
- In addition, a student's vocabulary is also worthy of attention, studentsoften learn vocabulary by reading words in English and try to remember that inVietnamese, has written in the writing as well as to deal with the teacher, but nosense of self-check himself, to inculcate new words and vocabulary available.Therefore, they are forgetful and easily confused with other words Thus, manystudents get bored and neglected school So teachers need to pay attention to

- Visual aids in teaching include: real objects, models, pictures, etc
+ Real objects are essential objects that are all around us and very close toeveryday life or study tools such as pens, pencils, books, tables, chairs,bookshelves, and so on
+ Graphic objects are drawings, tapes and discs
Replacements are plastic or clay models
When using visual aids, teachers must study the lesson contentbeforehand to prepare the utensils to suit the lesson content and that utensilsmust
Used thoroughly, that lesson will be more effective Thus, new visual aidsare valuable for students to better exploit and learn knowledge on the basis ofgroup exchange observations to inculcate knowledge
Using visual aids for teaching English helps students to understand andabsorb knowledge easier, creating comfort for students, making them no longerafraid to learn foreign languages in general and English in particular Usingvisual aids in teaching, the teacher plays the role of directing, students takecontrol of observation and actively explore the research of the topic as well asknowledge of new lessons excitement and stimulation of curiosity,hyperactivity, inquisitive in students After observing the visual aids, theinstructor is the instructor to suggest students to build and navigate to the maincontent and knowledge of the lesson
Therefore, for teachers to prepare teaching aids is an indispensableimportant issue, it determines the success of the lesson and the teaching process,the teacher should have plan study program to prepare utensils
2.3.2 The tips suggest using visual aids:
Trang 7- This is a method that teachers organize for students to see visualequipment, learn knowledge through tools to build situations, predict thesemantics of words, predict phenomena, events, collect information and results
to guide students into lesson topics or do exercises to process information
2.3.2.1 Visual aids should be used in every lesson:
* Flashcards - Optimal vocabulary learning method
Flashcards consist of many small cards put together, each card uses both the front and back based on the form: Question and Answer
- Front panel - designed to record new words, transcription and typewords
Backside - used to record the explanation in English, such as, SYN, usagetips, Vietnamese explanation
- Flashcards are compactly designed so that users can carry, studyanytime, anywhere instead of having to focus on the desk like traditionallearning methods You can flip when you wake up in the morning, sit on the bus,during breaks, when sitting in the canteen, while waiting, while walking, etc
- Flip as much as you will remember for long and clear
HOW TO USE FLASHCARDS EFFECTIVE
Flashcards work best when it follows these important principles:
+ Use both sides of flashcards appropriately, see both sides many times toremember information For example, when learning a new word, on the onehand, it will be the word you need to learn, and on the other hand, it will be ashort definition phrase for the word
+ Don't put too much information on a flash card Each flash card shouldcarry only 1 piece of information in the form of 1 question - 1 answer.Information should be short and for learning it should only be a quick glance
+ Use illustrations Draw illustrations on flashcards or college frommagazines The more interesting and different flashcards are, the easier it is forlearners to remember the information on flashcards
Eg: Unit 9: What did you see at the zoo? – Lesson 1: Part 4: Listen andtick – Page: 59
Trang 8learned before This makes the child's communication and reflex skillsimprove.
- Save time:
Learning English through pictures is also a relatively time-saving way oflearning Children can increase their English vocabulary with pictures using avariety of “tricks” such as asking them to put pictures of words on the wall,study corner, refrigerator, where they can see pictures photos and words mostoften Each time children accidentally look at the pictures, they will gradually godeep into the child's subconscious and help them memorize vocabulary longerwithout having to memorize a huge amount of vocabulary
- Easily apply vocabulary in everyday communication:
When children use English in simple conversations, the picturessubconsciously suggest vocabulary that they have learned in the past Childrenwill use vocabulary in the most natural way At the same time, this vocabularylearning method also helps children not have to translate from Vietnamese intoEnglish - one of the most common mistakes in the English learning process
* Real objects:
Teachers can use real objects in class, or brought them to class by teachersand students Using real objects, students will be more interested in learning andremember the lesson for longer

Eg: Unit 2: I always get up early How about you? – Lesson 1: Part 2:point and say – Page: 12
Trang 10- When teaching vocabulary:
+ The first step:The teacher introduces everyday activities by using bodylanguage to express activities and asking students to guess what they mean

Trang 12Whole class: What do you do in the evening?
Student: I sometimes watch TV.
2.3.2.2 To promote the best use of visual appliances, it is necessary to combine and flexibly use the following basic methods:
* Modeling method (Model, Action, Talk - Mat):
Emphasis on action and modeling according to sentence structures andpatterns and then practice carefully, helping students to form skills in usingEnglish as much as possible in a smallest amount of time This method isrelatively suitable for teaching English in Vietnam because the followingadvantages:
+ Saving time, students can immediately understand the content andlanguage through the teacher's movements
+ Students understand what to do when they practice
+ Help teachers use all English to explain a structure, an activity withoutresorting to their mother tongue
*The Total Physical Response (TPR)
This method is also known as the listening comprehension method (theComprehensive Approach -CA) to help students respond comprehensivelythrough activities based on the connection between language and automaticaction, which helps students connect and remember longer
+ Features of the TPR method:
- Help students develop the ability to understand language beforespeaking that language
