I The reason for choosing topic.

Our country is in the development stage, taking the knowledge economy as thefoundation for the development of education and training is considered the firstnational policy and improving the quality of teaching and learning in order to

complete the training human resources for industrialization and modernization ofthe country To survive and developers to build and protect the country to keep

up with developed countries requires us to grasp the most advancedachievements apart to put the country of Vietnam became a thriving civilization.Besides English is a language used to communicate popular worldwide so thattoday the teaching and learning of English in the school has made major changes

in the content and methods teaching, to match the objectives and requirementsset out for the education department in the reform program The most basicviews on the new method is to promote a positive, proactive students and createoptimal conditions for their development and practice their language skills andcommunication purposes, not is the supply of plain language knowledge

As a teacher of English in secondary school, I always think about how toachieve quality teaching and high effeciency To do get it, ask the teacher toapply the procedure in all forms of diversity, abundance, making foreignlanguage classes lively, charismatic, compelling them to help the get youpromote capacity towards the end of "I am the organizer, student self-guided,self- control in class."

Although instructional time is not long, but through their own experience withthe reference material, I realized: "To help students tobe cofident in their studies,teacher has to improve their abilities to use word To achieve this, I think thatproviding ways to learn words is very important" Through real-time application

in secondary school , I have achieved certain effects get That's why I choose the

topic "Some tips on teaching English vocabularies in grade 7 effectively "

II Research purposes:

- To encourage students to use English in class, not using native

- To help students to be confident in English

- To investigate the difficulties of using “Classroom Language” of secondary school students

III Subjects Research:

Some tips on teaching English vocabularies in grade 7 effectively

IV Research methods:

2 Disadvantages:

According to the current distribution programs in English Secondary,there are 3periods per week Besides, the students here live in bad conditions andcircumstances, parents do not understand the importance of English subjects, sothey should not be interested and urge them to study this subject In addition, thedevelopment of all aspects is limited, conditions for students to be exposed to themass media, entertainment programs use less English Leading to the possibility

of their communication is limited, let alone communicate in English

To the students, besides a number of children seriously, there are many studentsonly learn through the speakers, not to inculcate the lessons in mind, reading,writing regularly, not interested lesson, until the teacher asks them not tosucceed

For the teacher, it is also very difficult to check or guide them to learn at homebecause the foreign language isnot popular This is a very difficult problem inmanaging the student's home

3 The need of the subject:

a Rationale:

Education Act 2005 (Article 5) stipulates that "educational methods to promote

a positive, self-discipline, initiative and creative thinking of students, training forself-study learning capacity, the ability to practice, passion for learning and willrise "

With the goal of universal education is "Helping students develop acomprehensive moral, intellectual, physical, aesthetic and basic skills, developpersonal power, dynamism and creativity, image the human personality SocialistVietnam, build and responsibilities as citizens, to prepare students for furthereducation or go into working life, participate in the construction and defense ofthe homeland " General education program attached to Decision No 16/2006 /

QD - 05/05/2006 Ministry of Education and Training of the Minister ofEducation and Training has also stated: "It promotes the positive, self-discipline,initiative and creativity of the students, in accordance with specific subjects,objects student characteristics and conditions of each class, students foster self-learning method, the possibility of cooperation, skill Games knowledge intopractical, emotional impact, bring joy, excitement and responsibility for studentlearning

b Practical basis:

As you know, for many years now almost all students in Viet Nam has not onlyaimed at passing their exams and getting some further studies for their futurelife, but also they have had a desire to be integrated into the culture, thecivilization, and the people of English speaking countries Many students arenot confident to speak and express their English in class whereas most of theEnglish lessons are carried out in traditional methods That is, the teacherpresents new words verbally, and then students listen and repeat Finally, teachercall some good students to read before class.This method doesnot limit thenumber of words As a consequence, the students find it hard to remember aswell as to communicate in the real life naturally

II Situation issues before applying experience initiative.

For a long time, teachers become familiar with traditional thinking.It is

very difficult to change their mind As you all know, English is now a globalprofessional language English is used in every corner all over the world Withthe importance of learning languages, especially English, considering teachingEnglish widely in schools is one of a main subjects to develop students' abilities

In teaching English, teaching vocabularies is a vitally process in all lessons.Having rich vocabularies helps students develop all four skills - listening,speaking, reading, and writing However, infact, almost students are very lazy tolearn words They arenot able to remember the words that they learnt Otherscan't find out suitable ways to learn words, so they donot remember both themeaning ang using of the words

Through teaching English, the hours of colleagues, professional trainingcourses, I draw out for myself the method of teaching vocabulary effectively

III Some tips on teaching vocabulary.

1 Presenting a new words

1.1.Eliciting the words

Open-mindedness is an important step in teaching newwords Teacher can use many different techniques to elicit suchas:

a Visuals : use pictures,map, chart, diagram,

asks them to close their notebooks

“ What’s this in English ?”
