PART A THE INTRODUCTION

I The reasons for choosing this theme.

The 21st century skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving,creativity, and collaboration demand teachers to increase learner effectivenessand efficiency as well as learner engagement and satisfaction (Kim, 2011).Consequently, they must create a stimulating and effective learning environmentwhich brings about more positive student attitudes toward learning As amandatory subject in the high school curriculum in Vietnam, English iscompulsory from grades 3 to 12 It is one of the tool subjects in high school, thesubject not only helps students form and develop language skills but also meetsthe requirements for high-quality human resources in industrial careers,nationalization, modernization and the period of international integration of thecountry English brings about an important international communication tool forstudents, helps them exchange information and knowledge advanced science andtechnology, understand cultures, thereby contribute to creating understandingbetween peoples, forming global citizen awareness, contributing to thedevelopment of personal qualities and capabilities Through learning Englishand by learning about different cultures, students can understand and love theirown language and culture better English is also directly and indirectly related tointeracting with many other subjects such as Literature, Nature and Society,History and Geography, Art, Physical Education, Information Technology,Experiential activities and a tool for teaching and learning other subjects,especially Math and natural sciences However,on October 18th 2024, theMinistry of Education and Training announced illustrative exam questions forthe high school graduation exam from 2025 Beside familiar forms such asparagraph completion with single words, and reading comprehension in the test,there is the disappearance of previously common types of exercises such ascorrecting errors, rewriting sentences, connecting sentences, and communicationfunctions, and the apprearance of the new kinds of task like completingparagraphs with phrases or sentences, completing the information of theadvertisement or announcement, rearranging the order of the paragraph or letter,paraphasing sentences, mentioning information in which paragraph and bestfitting the sentence in a parapraph It can be clearly seen that the level ofdifficulty of the test is stronger, the classification is stronger, and it focuses moredeeply on students' reading comprehension, information analysis and logicalarrangement skills, closely following the orientation of the competencyassessment test Therefore, guiding students to gradually approach these newtypes of questions is very necessary Eliciting students on how to tackle newtypes of exercises and developing their problem-solving skills is an urgent task

On that basis, when students enter grade 12, they have a long period of time topractice and master the test sets based on the illustrated test structure of theMinistry of Education and Training Consequently, you can achieve the highestresults in the GCSE exam in the new school year That's the reason why I

decided to choose the topic: "Guiding 12 graders at Tinh Gia 1 High School to approach rearrangement questions in the English model GCSE test form

PART B THE CONTENT

I Theorical foundation of this theme

The model GCSE test in 2025 was announced by the Ministry ofEducation and Training on October 18th , 2024 Therefore, these types ofquestions are quite new to students, and reference and supporting resources arerather limited Currently, a number of educators, English teachers and studentsare designing a set of materials that closely follows the form of the illustratedtest to use as supplementary materials during the teaching process However,these resources cost a bit money and sometimes are not relevant to the ability ofthe students in mountainous area And the document applies generally to

students nationwide In fact, each locality uses a different type of textbook, so

the source materials do not completely follow the textbooks that Tinh Gia 1High School students are using Only then will students have supportingresources suitable to their abilities to learn and understand and apply them Bystudying and practicing consolidation exercise every day, it is certain thatstudents will increasingly progress and become proficient in solving testquestions according to the new structure

* At the beginning of the academic year 2024-2025 at Tinh Gia 1 uppersecondary school, I deliver handouts related to reaarrangement questions forstudents in class 12D2 and 12A6 and ask them to do within 15 minutes

Mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best arrangement of utterances or sentences to make a meaningful exchange of text in each of the following questions from 13 to 17.
