1 Introduction 1.1 Reasons for choosing the research:

Today, English is the popular language in the world There are more than forty countries, which use it as an official language, and nearly 500 million people use it as a second language in communication In Vietnam, English is also considered the official foreign language in schools Despite this, many students in Trieu Son 3 high school are not good at English They only learn English to deal with the tests without practicing knowledge in their lessons voluntarily; not even do the homework One of the reasons is that they do not have much vocabulary knowledge or they are not interested in looking up new words and all kinds of words in the dictionary while they are doing their exercises Meanwhile we also know that vocabulary has a very important contribution to the completion of grammatical exercises and improvement of four skills

According to the urgent needs of learning language and practical learning

situation of my students, I chose the theme: “Some techniques: To help Trieu Son 3 High School students identify and use the correct form of the part of speech” to help the school’s students understand the part of speech and have the

lexical establishment skills They can also know how to use the words in the correct form of grammar and to be consistent with mentioned context Because

of test " Using the correct form of the words" is also an important point of

grammar This form is not only very difficult but also appears much in English grammar section Besides, Students often meet this form in the major exams such as college entrance exams, etc…

1.2 Aims of the research:

- To show some techniques to help students identify and use the correct

form of the part of speech

- To help students know how to use the words in the correct form of

grammar and to be consistent with mentioned context

- Give students confidence in identifying and using the correct form of

the part of speech in the sentence

1.3 Scope and object:

- Researching in the process of teaching English at my classes;

- This subject is concerned with some techniques that students of all three grades can identify and use the correct form of the part of speech effectively

1.4 Researching method: Reading reference books; discussing with other

teachers; applying in teaching; observing and drawing out experiences

2 CONTENT 2.1 The reasoning basis of the theme:

According to some of the authors’ linguistic papers: [An, 2003; Asgari & Mustapha, 2011; Dagiima, 2009; Richards & Farrell, 2011; Schmitt, 1993; Schmitt, 2000; etc … ] Teaching and learning vocabulary play a very important

role in learning the English language However, most of the students from my classes who are still confused about identifying and using the correct form of the part of speech and the location of them in the sentence That is why they always find difficult and boring to learn English language

All of these reasons have paved the way for me to research and apply some techniques to teaching and learning English vocabulary in general and to help Trieu Son 3 High School students identify and use the correct form of the part of speech in particular In hope that in case the expected outcomes would be fulfilled, the study could contribute to better the vocabulary learning for my students

2.2 Some methods to solve the problem:

Because of the reasons and mentioned studies above, I have applied some techniques helping Trieu Son 3 High School students identify and use the correct form of the part of speech effectively in learning English language

A General procedure:

- Recalling the basic concepts of the part(s) of speech (definitions of noun, verb, adjective, adverb ).

- Signs to identify the part(s) of speech and basic ways to form new words in English

- Guide students to consider related words in front or behind to deduce the correct form of the word to be filled

Example: This is a beautiful flower (beauty)

↓ ↓ ↓

Article adjective noun

Noun

B Specific procedure:

- This is the part, which makes students embarrassed and confused, so teachers must lead into the vocabulary directly to create the focus for the students

- Provide words (to help students find out the part(s) of speech by basing on

the form of words)

+ The suffixes of Nouns are often: - tion, - sion, -er, -or

+ The suffixes of Adjectives are often: - able, - ful, - ous, - less, - al + The suffixes of Adverbs are often: - ly

- Provide the meaning of the words

- Practice reading for students (teacher reads before all students read in unison)
