Requirements of teaching and learning in schools today for this language does not just stop at one single skill that is developed in parallel 4 skills: Listening -Say - Reading - Writing

1 THE RENERAL POINTS.

1.1 The reasons of choosing the topic

As we all know our country is in the process of integration and development, together with the international community in many areas such as:

economy, tourism, culture, including the education sector So English has had a very important position to communicate, and is key to helping us inspired and can go anywhere in the world, reaching every area of your life

Along with the trend of globalization, English is increasingly playing an extremely important role in all areas, therefore, the teaching and learning of English

in this context and should be interested in investing in both internal content and

methods Requirements of teaching and learning in schools today for this language does not just stop at one single skill that is developed in parallel 4 skills: Listening -Say - Reading - Writing There are many methods of teaching and learning of Englishlanguage skills in schools has been adopted, however, Read - out remains a difficult skill to students communicate effectively because it is difficult to maintain the studentinterest during a long lecture, especially when they are in the habit to stop at

understanding the meaning of words rather than go deeper to understand the message

or knowledge is transmitted through each content poison

I am teaching English at Trung Thanh secondary School in Quan Hoa – amountainous district of Thanh Hoa for many years I have always been aware and wondered how to help these children can grow in 4 skills: listen-speak-read-write To English became my inspiration for these children and to defuse problems, during the Ethnic schools sell stay high school Trung Thanh in the past year as well as in the academic year 2017-2018 I have studied the relevant documents, as well as

discussions with colleagues in the journal batch Manager to find the direction to fix problems Aware of the importance of receiving information, additional knowledge through reading culture so I decided to research and development of specialized skills taught Reading as a way of sharing skills and methods to the same direction students

to enhance their knowledge through their own skills through topics "Use of modern teaching techniques to improve the quality of teaching reading lesson in class 8 in Trung Thanh secondary school" to contribute to improving the quality of the subject,

as well as innovative methods of teaching and learning

2 THEORETICAL BASIS AND PRACTICAL BASIS

2.1.1 Theoretical basis

In recent years, foreign language learning in schools Thanh Hoa is applied widely and gradually is considered academic courses with a maximum of 4 more details on the week When English has confirmed the role and importance of it in the

schools and all educational levels, improving the quality of teaching and learning is very important So how to improve the effectiveness of teaching and learning is a necessity not only for students, but especially for people who are directly teaches English We all know that learning English is merely a language school Want to become proficient in that language, the school must practice four basic skills:

Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing If they learn well the four skills, it will be easy access to information technology, science and technology and is very convenient

in communication Especially comprehension skills is one of the basic skills to be focused in the process of teaching and learning foreign languages It deciding whetherlearners have understood the content of the post or not So if students have the ability

to read or understand English well, you can read books, newspapers and documents are written in English with content appropriate to the level and age of the students, help school conditional students improve their English In a reading teacher more thanjust help students understand the corpus of each paragraph, but also to know how to use a flexible procedures to match the specific content of each article to inspire

interesting for students and creating training activities to help students better

practices But most students are afraid to exercise The reason is that English is

completely different from the mother tongue, difficult to learn, difficult to

remember Moreover, they are lazy should learn from their vocabulary too little, poorly prepared new post, learn coping weak especially children They are always afraid of saying the wrong speech led to concern considerable affect learning

outcomes of the subject

The requirements of the course and the difficulties of the student, as a teacher is

to teach subjects I myself have always concern is how to achieve the highest

efficiency in their teaching methods Therefore, I have found out a number of

measures to help students learn more effectively than reading Because of the above

reasons I chose strong as comprehension skills to do a workshop on "Use of modern teaching techniques to improve the quality of teaching reading lesson in class 8 at Trung Thanh secondary school ".

2.1.2 Practical basis

In the process of teaching and learning foreign languages, reading is one of the very basic skills are emphasized Reading is an effective means and necessary for students to be able to master and consolidate the knowledge of language, expand vocabulary and understand more deeply the style, using the language they are

learning The readings play a crucial role in the development of reading

comprehension skills of students

In fact, on reading skills and do the exercises after reading, students often makesome common mistakes such as: mispronounced, often pronounce wind

indiscriminately, the student's vocabulary too meager or forgotten much, do not know how to read a comprehension exercise, do not remember the information in the

reading, do not grasp the grammatical structure basically, the majority of students do not know how to ask questions and answer texts To overcome this situation, first of all, the teacher must do so that students have proper awareness about the importance

of language learning in general and in particular the English in particular, is to make learning favorite student, interested in learning a first reading more effectively The

lectures of the teachers in the classroom must be appropriate for all audiences of students, must have appropriate methods, inspire student learning So through the actual experience of teaching and learning in the past year I have decided to choose this topic for study in the academic year 2017-2018.

* The advantages and disadvantages when say for students

the training, exchange of experiences, topical

-The interest, support of the Rectorate, the expertise and colleagues

irresponsible attitudes in learning and also affect the formation of personality, moral qualities of the children later on More parents also lack of interest in the inspection work and manage their study time, particularly this will easily make you

depressed On the other hand, due to the school located in poor, English learning conditions are limited The school has no reference books and equipment to cater to this subject Issues raised is how we overcome these weaknesses on to contribute to improving the quality of work out the skills of listening, speaking, reading, and

writing to students, help students become more confident in communication In

addition, English is a difficult subject, volume much knowledge, classroom time is less, especially for grade 8 English, reading only 45 minutes to work out successfully this skill for the students in a class is very difficult thing The difficulty is that but want to learn this subject is a very intractable thing, requiring the responsible teacher must have the passion a career, have high enthusiasm, combine perseverance,

enthusiasm, new help students themselves more and more advances

2.2 The states of the research topic the results

Class

Totalnumber ofstudents

Reading skillGrasp the knowledge,

apply quite well

Never grasp the knowledge,

using weak

Through results on I noticed the children's reading skills are also more

limited prepared They have not understood the lesson, not to apply the knowledge you've taught

English is a very difficult subject for SECONDARY school students, especially for students in grade 8.Moreover for all-mountainous students contact and intimacy surrounding reality are limited

The majority of the students have yet to focus on and invest in foreign language courses, preparing an article for granted In the school, the majority of these children are often passive, lack of flexibility, the less English and join statements to learn lessons

2.3 Implement solutions

By studying the reality problem, I boldly suggest some positive methods to help grade 8 students to learn reading skill well

Apply some positive methods on reading lesson:

2.3.1 Methods of teaching groups

Teaching groups are also known by different names such as: Teaching collaboration, teaching in small groups, in which students of a class is divided into small groups, within a time limit each self-help group completed the task of learning on the basis of division of work and cooperation Results of the group work were then presented and evaluated before the whole class

Teach if well-organized groups will promote positive, accountability; capacity

development partnership working and communication capabilities of the students The process of implementing the teaching process can be divided into groups of three basic stages:

a Working full class: Introduction and assignment

- working rule agreement

- Conduct solving tasks

- Prepare reports on the results

c Working full class: Presented results, evaluation
