"Attracting students in teaching and testing vocabulary at Thieu Long Primary school"

1.2 Research purposes.

Teaching is a job with many challenges Every year, new challenges arise because the world is changing day by day and teachers must always be willing to receive and pass on new knowledge to students mine One problem that many teachers suffer is how to introduce vocabulary so that they can not only understand but also feel interesting Their young brains will be extremely pressured by the methods Introduce and test vocabulary in the way of writing, cramming and memorizing If there are no interesting ways to teach and test vocabulary, then you will consider vocabulary learning to deal with times check

Vocabulary is the most important tool and means of learning English In any skill of language learning, vocabulary must be used So English vocabulary

is the capital, the main tool for English learners

In a lesson in English, most classes have a vocabulary introduction In order for the lesson to achieve high results, students must know how to pronounce and use words In order to achieve efficiency, teachers must choose appropriate teaching methods to make them easy to understand, remember, and use

At present, English is a new and difficult subject in elementary school, most students and parents are not really interested Vocabulary is an important and indispensable factor in language used for communicative activity So, mastering numbers vocabulary is necessary

1.4 Method of research:

To research a topic, people often choose many different methods With this topic, I use the following methods:

1 / Theoretical research method

I read the conducting material issues related to my research needs

2 Learning experience from my colleagues

Attend the colleagues’ lesson to follow their good method

3 Experimental matching method

4 Observation method

5 Visual method and oral method

Methods of teaching English has been a lot of talking and discussion Learn how to best? Teach how to truly quality and efficiency? That's what concerns the concern myself but every teacher of English A normal classroom lessons also need to prepare carefully can teach good and effective

Teaching vocabulary is only one part of the lesson but it plays an extremely important role in the success of the whole lesson because of the practice of sentence patterns, forging fluency, fluency and smooth communication skills Whether or not it depends on whether students can read new words, grasp the meaning and use of vocabulary So teachers must have appropriate teaching methods for each lesson How to make each introduction and test your vocabulary feel exciting but still effective

Through practical teaching over the years, I have found that the old method of teaching and learning vocabulary often takes place in a way: Teachers

read articles and list words that teachers have never appeared in the teaching process called new words (new words) then the teacher writes all the new words

on the board, explains the meaning in Vietnamese and then reads them a few times Make them memorize new words to check in the next lesson That makes them boring and pressured

2 CONTENTS INNOVATION.

2.1 Reasoning Base

Vocabulary is one of the most important parts of learning a foreign language If you want to be good at English, even if you have any skill: listening, speaking, reading and writing, you need as much vocabulary as possible Previously we had the habit of teaching vocabulary by providing quantity, meaning of words and making them memorize This method keeps repeating in the lessons that make them boring Now with modern equipment,

we can apply and create many ways to teach interesting, effective and attractive vocabulary, creating a colorful playground in English With the scope of this topic I am not ambitious and not enough to offer all the ways to teach English vocabulary, but I hope that these methods of teaching vocabulary will help students learn effectively and Do not feel pressure when learning vocabulary Through the teaching process, I would like to introduce some methods

of teaching, testing and learning English vocabulary that I find effective and interesting for students

2 2 Practical basis:

- Any languages in the world, to communicate, it requires us to have a large amount of vocabulary Because vocabulary is an indispensable component

in the language used for communication activities Thus, master the number of learned words to use is very important

- In English, we can not train and develop the four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing of students without being based on the foundation

of vocabulary Indeed, if there is no necessary word, students can not listen, speak, read and write well, even if they have mastered structures

2 3 Situations

- Following the current distribution programs, there are two lessons per week for English in primary schools, and there are new words in almost lessons To teach vocabulary well, lessons must be more vivid and teachers have to make pictures, maps for illustration, enabling students to easily remember words and draw attention to their subject or focus on lessons

- For the students, besides a number of children who study actively, there are many students learn only to cope with their teachers They can not remember the words for a long time and use the words effectively

- There have been many difficulties for teacher of English because students can not be helped to study at home by their parents

Also, the ways students learn vocabulary is also need to be concerned, students often learn vocabulary by reading words in English and try to remember that in Vietnamese, they write in their notebooks is just to the deal with their teachers, not self-consciously check, to inculcate new words Therefore, they are forgetful and easily confused these words with other words

As a result, many students get bored and forget the words So teachers need to pay attention to this mentality of students

2 4 Problems before applying the experience initiative

After analyzing the causes that make students afraid of learning English, not remember and use vocabulary ineffectively, I take a small survey Specifically, in the beginning of the school year, I have taught English for class 5A, after some lessons, I asked students to do a vocabulary test by asking them

to match English words with Vietnamese meaning (Matching):

Match English words with Vietnamese meaning

2 5 Innovations or solutions used to solve the problem

2.5.1 Some methods of teaching English vocabulary in Primary.

a Use images to teach vocabulary

This is a common way but it brings very high efficiency in introducing and learning vocabulary Help students learn words, remember words through pictures

Example 1 : “Unit 1: Lesson 1 - Grade 5”

Laos Korea Malaysia Vietnam Malaysia

Example 2 : “Unit 3 : Lesson 1- Grade 5”

dictionary paint

brushes

[1]

Example 3: “Unit 7 : Lesson 1 – Grade 5”

shuttlecock karate blindman`s

bluff

rollerskating table tennis

[1]

b Teach vocabulary through song, chant, video clip.

Using video clips, songs, chant is very effective in learning and introducing vocabulary Sometimes they just need to belong to the song, the chant is that they have a relative vocabulary This method helps children learn words naturally and comfortably without being forced to learn With this method, teachers need to invest time to search on the websites of songs and chants, video clips that match the lesson content, in accordance with their physiology I find using this method to teach and reinforce vocabulary very effectively

Example 1 : “Song - Numbers “”

One and one is two

Two and two is four

Four and one is five

Five and five is ten

- or the song "The big number" but a very good song about numbers, you can count from 1 to 1 billion and still enjoy it

Example 2: “Days of the week”

There are seven days

There are seven days

There are seven days in a week

Sunday, Monday

Tuesday, Wednesday

Thursday, Friday

Saturday

2.5 2 Method of teaching vocabulary with TPR

- TPR is a type of vocabulary learning that children like to be gentle, attractive, easy to absorb for students You can TPR by song, chant (watch video clip and follow the activity) Or the teacher has just read the word and described the word in action, they say and follow it

Example:

- clap your hand – clap, clap ,clap : vỗ tay

- Stand up : đứng lên

- sit down : ngồi xuống

- shake your hand : lắc tay - shake your body : đung đưa cơ thể

- Wash your hand : rửa tay - brush your teeth: đánh răng

- run : chạy - swim : bơi

- fly : bay - ride a bike : đi xe đạp

-sing a song : hát -read a book : đọc sách

- There are many words and phrases we can teach and learn through TPR to help the English lessons become more exciting

a Give synonyms

Example : Bike = bicycle Football = soccer

Learn= study Autumn= fall

Corn= maize

b Give antonyms.

Example : Like - hate Fat – thin

Black- white Funny - boring

tall short big small long short stornd weak young old

c Use real objects.

Teachers can point to real objects that are in class and introduce: "a

book", "a pen", "a ruler"

The teacher then asks the students to look at the object and guess the meaning of the word This method gives them an interest in learning and a high concentration because the words that teachers recommend are things that are very close to them everyday and easy to guess for them Real objects can be around the classroom or teachers can prepare at home Example 2: My School Subjects Maths Vietnamese Science English Music Art 2.5 3 Methods to test vocabulary a Check and learn from the topic. Example “https://gamevui.vn” - Family : Grandfather, grandmother, mother, father, brother, sister, uncle,aunt - Subjects : English, Art , Music, Science, Maths, Vietnamese

b.Give an example

- The teacher gives a new sentence, asking students to substitute from underlined

Example 1 : What`s the weather like today ?

It`s sunny It`s cloudy It`s hot

Example 2 : What day is it today ?

It`s Monday It`s Tuesday It`s Wednesday

c Painting.

Teachers can instruct students to draw simple pictures so students can remember longer With this way, students are easy to learn, easy to remember and very interested

Example

a flower a cat

a bike a book

a house an apple

2 5 4 Check vocabulary through games.

Games are not always a type of entertainment In fact it can be used to reinforce the vocabulary introduced in the lesson in a way that appeals to students in an organized and fun way So teachers need to know how to use the games in the lessons so that students can learn while playing so that the lesson is gently relaxed However, depending on the specific lesson, the teacher may choose the game that is appropriate for the purpose of the lesson

a.Game : Bingo

Example

b Game : Network

Example 1.

c Circle game: Students talk to the topic or repeat the words they learned in the previous lesson
