1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Reasons for choosing topics.

Teaching foreign languages always has many fluctuations and changes according to the general evolution of world civilization and culture - That is something no one can deny Therefore, it is required that the instructors of this subject are always responsible and dedicated to convey knowledge effectively To achieve this goal, nothing is more than innovative teaching methods This is an inevitable issue and the correct policy of our Party and State Teaching according to innovative methods has created conditions for teachers to bring into full play their role of directing, ability to lead, elicit, organize and manage teaching activities effectively, helping students to promote their full roles central role, learning actively, proactively and creatively in cognitive activities and knowledge acquisition to expand understanding and increasing passion for the subject

For foreign language teaching, students' creativity, activeness, and proactive learning is even more necessary because no one can replace learners

in grasping foreign language media and using foreign languages in activities communicate by their own ability to communicate The method of teaching foreign languages has chosen communication as the main direction, communication capacity is the basic teaching unit, considering communication

as both purpose and means of teaching (Teaching in communication, diploma and to communicate) In order to teach English subjects more and more vividly, with high results and to meet communication needs, each teacher must make every effort, constantly improving the work of fostering and self-training, regularly doing research applying active, scientific and appropriate

teaching methods And this is also the reason why I chose the topic "Some effective methods of teaching dialogues in English 7 Thọ Phu Secondary School", to apply it to my teaching practice in Thọ Phu Secondary School ,

2.1 Theoretical basis of the problem.

Conversation is a communication activity consisting of at least 2 people: speaker and listener with the changing role to develop listening and speaking skills for students

Apply cutting-edge teaching methods such as problem-solving and direct students into problem-solving and discovery, while incorporating the effective application of modern science and technology achievements Especially the application of information technology to the teaching process, ensuring the time conditions for self-study and self-study for students Orientation of subject methods:

Motivating learning: During language acquisition, students will achieve high academic results if they are motivated to learn Motivation comes in when children feel interested in a subject and see their own progress Therefore, when teachers use challenging situations in teaching conversation, they are engaging and engaging in classroom activities This is both highly demanding and suitable for students to feel their progress in learning To help them feel progress In learning, teachers need to set reasonable learning goals

In addition, it is necessary to encourage students to follow the motto of trial and error (trial and error) in the process of practice, so they should not be afraid of making mistakes in practice

- Promoting students' individual learning methods and creativity: Another important factor contributing to effective language acquisition is their own personal learning methods Teachers need to help children be aware

of the nature of language acquisition and encourage them to find the most appropriate learning method for themselves; guide students self-study methods and tips for learning and communication practice

In addition, teachers should always create conditions for students to participate in contributing personal experiences and knowledge to the learning process, giving them autonomy and promoting their creativity and potential

- Creating maximum opportunities for language practice: In order to provide students with the most favorable language learning environment, teachers need to pay attention to make the most of their time in class, creating every opportunity for students can use the learned language effectively and meaningfully

It is necessary to use English in classroom communication to the maximum extent possible: between students and teachers, between students,

to facilitate them to get used to using English in real communication However, the mother tongue (Vietnamese language) should not be mechanically excluded Should use Vietnamese language when necessary such as: to explain words indicating complex concepts, difficult grammatical structures or to explain the teacher's requirements for the exercise

- Using textbooks creatively:

Teachers need to clearly understand the intentions, requirements and objectives of each lesson, each teaching item in the textbook so that on the one hand they can teach the correct focus of the lesson, on the other can use the textbook creatively suitable for students

In specific cases, it is necessary to find ways to supplement or update the contents of the lessons to make the curriculum always new, suitable for students and with the evolving and changing lives

* In summary:

Each teacher himself has a different creativity in each teaching period,

in each research topic to suit students in their working area The method of teaching conversation in junior high school is to create tips and skills suitable for each student object Personally, as a teacher of English at Tho Phu

Secondary School I have been teaching for 20 years myself, I understand the methodological characteristics of this subject Along with teaching practice, I always research, explore to improve the quality of teaching and learning English subject

2.2 The state of the problem before applying the initiative.

In recent years, the quality of teaching and learning at Tho Phu Secondary School has continuously improved, the number of excellent and good students has increased, the average, weak, and the poor have been significantly reduced the student's mother gives confidence in our school In addition, the number of students being considered for graduation and passing high school

is increasing, every year there are many students winning the award for excellent students in the district, best students in the province, second, third

in English in particular and the school's cultural subjects in general

The reason for such achievements is due to the attention, leadership, direction and help of all levels in the province and district in a timely and conscientious manner Besides, it must also be mentioned the continuous efforts of the Board of Directors, teachers and students in the school Right from the beginning of the summer of the new school year, the Board of Directors encouraged all staff members and students: "No matter how difficult it is, you must compete to teach well and learn well"; boldly renovate teaching -learning methods, improve the quality of teaching and -learning

Therefore, each teacher in general and English language teachers in particular explore, innovate and boldly apply advanced teaching methods and means in teaching to contribute to improving the quality of teaching and studying English at Tho Phu Secondary School

However, the reality in teaching and learning English at Tho Phu Secondary School still has a number of limitations:

- Teachers are always conscious of innovating their teaching methods, but in general they are still influenced by traditional teaching methods This has a significant impact on students' absorption of knowledge Students become a receiving machine, not proactive, creative While effective English teaching is demanding Teaching English is not only imparting knowledge but also attracting students, making them interested in learning

- This is a relatively difficult subject for pupils, especially students in Tho Phu commune - a commune where mainly people are farming This is also a challenge for them when approaching international languages in the period of global integration

In addition, due to limitations in pronunciation as well as learning conditions, students hesitate to communicate or cannot communicate with single-solution sentences in English

- Students' habits when encountering a conversation just skim and then solve the exercises below If the teacher is not really creative and invests in the lesson plan, it is easy for students to forget that conversation The reality

in learning the subject, students often have a passive habit, listening habit,

taking notes like a copy Most students do not have the habit of actively learning and exploring lessons, if they are not assigned tasks or if they are assigned tasks, they are still confused while solving problems They do not have the need to express their thoughts, emotions, interests and talents by themselves in front of the collective There is almost no sense of preparation before the lesson, there is a habit of waiting to receive knowledge from teachers If there is any difficulty, wait for the teacher's explanation

Results of the above situation:

- According to my statistics at the beginning of the 2020 - 2021 school year, the number of grade 7 students including 7A and 7B was 80, the percentage

of students' speaking skills was as follows:

Class

Total number of

students

Excellent Good Fair poor

QTY QTY

5 3

12.2 7.7

20 16

48.8 41.0

15 20

36.6 51.3

Thus, the number of students with unsatisfactory speaking skills still accounts for a large proportion These are alarming numbers If we maintain this ratio, it will greatly affect the quality of the subject Facing that situation, I boldly applied some new methods while teaching an English conversation 7 and achieved certain results

2.3 Measures have been taken.

2.3.1 The goal of the solution:

General awareness of conversation teaching:

The purpose of conversation teaching is to help students develop listening and speaking skills (especially speaking), appropriate to students' levels and ages, helping students to be conditional and communicating , improve English proficiency, have more social understanding

The conversation is divided into 3 steps: introduction, practice and speech production

Teachers need to apply specific and appropriate activities in the correct stages and certain content of the lesson

The structure of the conversation is completely different from the structure of a text Words of a conversation must be concise

The main activities of the conversation are couples, groups, and role-play

Conversation is speech between at least two people, with a changing role (with speakers and listeners)

Conventional conversation require an immediate reaction of language habits, so conversation does not require any preparation in advance The language in the dialogue is shortened speech The shim, middle words are used as linguistic aids Expressive elements such as gestures, facial expressions, posture, stress, intonation greatly support the quality and effectiveness of dialogue

The 3- step process of a conversation lesson:

Step 1 Presentation

Involve students' excitement

Create a need for students to want to communicate

Encourage students to think about the topic they will learn

- Introduce the topic of the conversation, introduce the character context

- Ask questions

- Introduce new words

Step 2 Practice

Understand the content of the conversation

- Memorize the dialogues of the characters

- Know how to apply structure in sample dialogues tobuild similar conversations under the guidance of the teacher

- Practice speaking exercises through:

- Practice oriented guide of the teacher

- Free practice

Step 3 Production - Helping students developtheir ability to communicate

- Do the exercises

- Practice speaking through free practice and practical contact

In general, teaching a conversation is usually done in three stages, as I explained above Each stage has its own specific requirements and characteristics I think that in order to achieve effective teaching period, when planning to prepare lessons, teachers must carefully study the type of exercises, identify the right ones to choose suitable techniques in the actual teaching conditions and circumstances To resolve this problem, I proceed as follows:

2.3.2 Solutions implemented:

* Firstly: Create a favorable environment for lessons:

Establish a pleasant atmosphere between teachers and students at the moment

of entering the classroom:

- Say hello to students;

- Introduce yourself;

- Ask questions that are normally natural;- Tells Jokes;

When entering English lessons in general and conversation lessons in particular, I often create a pleasant atmosphere between teachers and students

as follows:

Example: When entering a class, the teacher asks a student

Are you happy?

How many people are there in our class today?

What's the weather like today?

* Create self-confidence for students

- Visiting students;

- Create opportunities for students to introduce / talk about themselves and ask questions in response

Example: How are you today?

What time do you get up today?

How do you go to school?

The usual greetings like I used to create a comfortable learning atmosphere for the students, somewhat reducing the students who feel shy to learn, so the lesson is gentle and self-contained

* Secondly: Create an atmosphere of learning

"Presentation"

In the process of language acquisition, students will achieve high academic results if they have a learning atmosphere Learning atmosphere can be achieved when children feel interested in the subject and see their own progress For teachers to have a successful teaching hour, right at the first step

of an hour, which is a presentation, teachers need to create a climate that is both psychologically and emotionally favorable content for the next teaching activity Therefore, teachers can use a variety of tricks to present chat that are relevant and engaging to your specific student audience Here are a few activities to recommend for a conversation:

* I use visuals (Using visuals): Use pictures or real objects to introduce:

- Use pictures, introduce characters and the context of the conversation

- Use pictures to draw characters, introduce characters and contexts by asking questions for students based on pictures to answer

- Use visual aids such as pictures or real objects, and build conversations with students

Example: Unit 1 - B1 - P15 (English 7)

Teacher asks students to look at pictures (page 15) Send students ideas about the situation in the pictures by asking them questions for them to guess

1 Who are they in the picture?

2 Where are they?

3 What are they doing?

4 What is the teacher doing?

5 What are the students doing?

6 What are they talking about?

- Use pictures to draw two characters:

Miss Lien and Hoa are in the classroom Teacher gives questions and answers and asks students to put them together to complete the Matching

* I use supported devices such as radios and cassettes

- Turn on the tape for students to listen to the sample conversation.-Read conversation samples according to the voice of the characters in the conversation

- Read with students with a good voice in class to read the conversation pattern according to the correct number of characters in the conversation

- Together with one or two good students in the class, model the conversation

Example: Unit 10 - B1 - A bad toothache (English 7) p 103

Using pictures, radio and cassette tapes: Introduction of characters and contexts: Hoa and Minh Then the teacher turns on the headphones for the students to listen and remind them to pay attention to the pronunciation and intonation of the dialogue

Together with two good students in the class, they should close the conversation sample

In addition, I always create conditions for students to contribute personal experiences and knowledge to the learning process, giving them autonomy and their creativity and potential

In order to create the most favorable English learning environment for students, teachers need to pay attention to making the most of their time in class, creating every opportunity for students to use the learning materials

in a meaningful and effective way

To do this well, it is important to promote pairing and group activities and strategies that engage children in active participation in class activities

To help students understand language practice, I usually use the following types of activities:

Ask and answer: (questions and answers)

Exercises: (True / False statements?)

Example: Unit 2 (A4), page 21 "Telephone Numbers":

+ Exercises: (true / false statements)

1 Tam is phoning Phong

2 Phong will be free tomorrow morning

3 Phong and Tam will see a movie

4 The movie will start at 6.45

5 They will meet at Phong's house

Thirdly: Create maximum opportunities for language practice (Activity for "Practice" practice stage)

To help students understand and practice the conversation, use the following types of activities:

Use suggested words, phrases to build similar conversations (Substitutions -controlled practice)

- Use suggested words and phrases to build Substitutions - free

Example: Unit 4: AT SCHOOL

A Schedules 1,2,3 (P.43 Enghish 7)

Picture drill A4 (P.43)
