must depend on the form of the teaching function As well as Math andVietnamese, English for elementary students are required inspire the students inthe class to deepen their knowledge to help you remember all longer There havebeen many forms of organizational learning the game, but the game just tired ofthe lesson to intergrate into the curriculum of evil brother to reinforce lessons.For a long time, I concern myself and comfortable to hold an English rewardingplayground for elementary school students This is a useful playground,motivating teaching and learning of English teachers and students To participate

in the playground good caliber with such large organizations are themselvesteachers in each school should be able to organize for the students of proving thesame playing field

In order to improve the quality of teaching and learning English inelementary subjects, causing much excitement for elementary school students toimprove their foreign language skills to the younger generation, creatingmomentum for the development of the country I myself have a small initiative
