1 INTRODUCTION

As we all know foreign language is important for us in this age of industrialization and modernization , especially in the integration period It is like the key to expanding our vision and helping us go everywhere in the world , reaching out to all areas of life that common language is English worldwide Our country is growing, which demands that we must quickly catch up with the changing trend of the era of information technology

Currently, secondary education is implementing a comprehensive educational goals for students to develop human personality in response to the requirements of the times In the course of primary education it provides content specific to a formation of personality , intellectual development of students in a comprehensive manner For the English department contributed to development intellectual and thinking capacity , the understanding of the student society Thus making program to teach English in secondary education has been made in recent years to create platform for students to grasp the trend of the times and time to generate momentum for them later

In junior high school English program system 3 years, the passive part of knowledge is very important, with the graduation exams and excellent student competition at all levels Want to do well is the multiple choice quiz on the passive, the students need to understand the issues relating to the active and passive sentences in English, making the switch from exercise to exercise self-talk multiple-choice So I chose the topic “SOME METHODS FOR TEACHING

PASSIVE SENTENCE FOR GRADE 9 STUDENTS IN MINH SON SECONDARY SCHOOL” as a research problem in my experience initiatives

1.1 THE PURPOSE OF CHOOSING THE TOPIC.

After some years teaching english for students I realize that students usually have many difficulties in understanding and applying theory of passive voice to do exercies that are given by teachers So I choose this topic in order to help them I hope that my students will solve this matter soon

1.2 RESEARCH PURPOSE.

When I write this idea, I would like to contribute my small part to motivate secondary students feel like learning this second language and gain better grade

1.3 RESEARCH SUBJECTS.

In my topic, I just focus on some methods that I used in my class to help grade 9 students in my school do the passive sentence correctly in their test

1.4 RESEARCH METHODS.

1.4.1 Research based on observation methods: attending workshops about techniques of teaching primary pupils, Or classes of my colleagues

1.4.2 Research based on practice: Teaching with the attendance of some colleagues then discuss to learn from each other

1.4.3 Research based on studying materials related to designing games for primary lesson

1.5 NEW CHANGES IN THE INITIATIVE EXPERIENCE.

During my teaching , I used a lot of traditional methods I teaching pasive voice

for my students but they were all too familiar, easily caused boredom And I thought about applying some new methods to students' language activities From above thinking, I would like to develop my new idea to make an initiative experience: “SOME METHODS FOR TEACHING PASSIVE SENTENCE

FOR GRADE 9 STUDENTS IN MINH SON SECONDARY SCHOOL”.

2 CONTENTS OF THE INITIATIVE EXPERIENCE

2.1 THEORETICAL BASIS OF INITIATIVE EXPERIENCE

Learning foreign languages in general and English in particular requires learners of a diligent virtue, willing to learn and draw useful knowledge for themselves Mastering a structure or a way of speaking in English will help learners a lot in communication or doing that part Learners after a process of research and learning will have an overview of what they are learning, are researching and then have a correct way of learning and acquiring knowledge Maybe with the meaning of a sentence, but with different expressions that the speaker learns, the writer will give readers and listeners a vivid sense of their words or sentences

When writing initiatives this experience, I look forward to contributing their opinion a few issues relating to the active and passive sentences in English helps teachers can refer to in the study for the students prepare for the upcoming exam

2.2 THE SITUATION OF THE PROBLEM.

2.2.1 Advantages.

2.2.1.1 On the part of teachers.

- The school board has always been interested and create favorable conditions

for facilities and service literature for teaching subjects: Paintings, music cassettes,

- Local governments and organizations inside and outside schools who always support teachers in the process of work

- Teachers themselves always receive support from teachers and professional in groups and colleagues in their school

- The majority of students in the class love learning English and prepare books and supplies for learning

- Most parents are concerned and they all facilitate their children's learning

2.2.1.2 On the part of students.

- The majority of school students are eager to be taught this new language

- They are very active and so industrious

- They are so much interested in playing new games

2.2.2 Disadvantages.

Besides the above advantages, teachers and students exist back:

2.2.2.1 On the part of teachers.

Teachers also use several methods that are not child –friendly for primary pupils, so children sometimes don’t know the reason why they have to learn the lessons which make teaching and learning no meaningful

2.2.2.2 Teaching equipment.

Equipment used for teaching English is limited Some equipments are spoiled or outdated inconsistent with teaching More importantly, there is no function room which is also a challenge with Teachers to organize a game or turn

on music without any noise to other classes around

2.2.2.3 On the part of students.

- The majority of them are students in deep, they don’t have method of learning

vocabulary really effective To the parents, it is very difficult for them to check or guide them to learn at home because they all do not know a foreign language

- Some students especially boys often distracted and less interested in studying and learning vocabulary

- Some students have little time at home studying outside school hours because they have to help their parents with housework, farm work

Pupils have no chance to practice at home because there is no English environment around them So school time to learn English is rather little Moreover, some children are shy to communicate in English However, primary school age psychology and English is a completely new language to them, most of them do not have effective learning methods On the side of parents, it is also very difficult to test or guide the children to self-study at home because foreign language is not well known by all parents In addition, students are less able to communicate in English and they are also afraid to communicate and exchange in English outside of school hours Therefore, their learning is still limited, many of them are afraid of English Before I put this method into practice, I did a survey

about how positive students were in classroom language activities and got the following results:

class/Total Excellent Good Average bad

class/Total Excellent Good Average bad

- From the survey above, There are only 3% of excellent students in class

9A and 3% of excellent students in class 9B

- My aim is to guide students how to learn the new vocabulary in the most

efective way This is the best way to help them love learning and to be active to achieve their daily lessons

2.3 THE SOLUTION USED TO SOLVE PROBLEMS

2.3.1 Appying new methods in teaching passive voice.

- English is an important subject, it is a language to communicate with other countries in the world Want good communication requires us to have a rich vocabulary

- From the initiative (active vocabulary)

- From passive (passive vocabulary)

Each question can be expressed in the active or passive We use the initiative when the subject in question is directly causing agents act in question When the subject

is affected by the action in question, we use the passive voice The choice of using the active or passive depending on many factors In many cases, we have only used single or in active or passive form Therefore, students need to understand some of the following issues:

2.3.1.1 The use of passive sentences.

- When not necessary to mention the action agent (due to circumstances too obvious or unimportant)

Eg: The road bị repaired

-When We do not know or forget the people who take action

Eg: The money was stolen.

- When we are interested in the action itself rather than the people who take action Eg: This book was published in Vietnam

- When the subject of the sentence is subject not actively defined as: people, chúng, someone

Eg: People say that he will win

- It's said that he will win

- When the speaker does not want to mention all actions can cause

Eg: Smoking is not allowed here

2.3.1.2 Structure.

Regarding passive sentence structure in English, I will divide into two categories:

Type 1: Passive for not continuous tenses.

This format has the following general formula:

Type 2: Passive for continuous tenses.

This format has the following general formula:

Type 1 applies to six, the passive does not continue and 2 shall apply for six continuous passive But in this article I introduce the students learned in the program, serving for better implementation and enforcement nghiepTHPT semester includes four passive is not ongoing are: present tense, past tense, then present perfect, simple future tense, passive with modal verbs and the passive two ongoing are: present continuous and past continuous

2.3.1.2.1 Type 1: Passive for not continuous tenses.

2.3.1.2.1.1 Present simple:

Eg:

Active: Cows in Ba Vi They raise

Passive: Cows are raised in Ba Vi

2.3.1.2.1.2 The past simple:

Eg:

Active: James Watt invented the steam engine in 1784

Passive: The steam engine was invented by James Watt in 1784

2.3.1.2.1.3 present perfect:

Active: They have just finished the project

Passive: The project has just been finished

2.3.1.2.1.4 The future tense simple:

Eg:

Active: They Will build a new school for disabled children next month

Passive: A new school for disabled children Will Be built next month

2.3.1.2.1.5 modal verb.

EX1:

Active: You can see him now

Passive: He can be seen (by you) now

EX2:

Active: He shouldnt HIS term paper type

Passive: His term shouldn’t be typed paper

2.3.1.2.2 Type 2: Passive for continuous tenses.

2.3.1.2.2.1) Present continues:

Eg:

Active: Ann is writing a letter

Passive: A letter is being Written by Ann

2.3.1.2.2.2) The past continues:

Eg:

Active: She was cleaning the room at 7 a.m yesterday

Passive: The room was being cleaned at 7 a.m yesterday

2.3.2 From new sentence to the passive initiative.

Want to move from the passive initiative to question students should master the following moves:

Identifying new terms in the initiative, transforming it into a passive subject in question

- Identify the verb in the sentence actively, sharing "to be" corresponds to the English language and the subject of the passive new

- Divide the main verb in the sentence in the form of initiative in the passive past participle

- By + agent action (when you want to emphasize action pathogens)

S + V + O

S + V (participle) + O

Eg:

They Will finish this work tomorrow

S V O

This work will be finished (by add) tomorrow

In this section, students should note some of the following issues:

- The manner adverb is usually placed before the verb participle in the passive two Eg: He wrote the book Wonderfully

- The book was Wonderfully Written speaker

- By + agent acting behind the adverb of place and standing in front of adverb of time

Eg1: A passer- by took him home

He was taken home by a passer- by. a passer- by

Eg2: We will receive the gifts on Monday

- The gifts received by us on Will Be Monday

- Negative and passive sentence in question is created the same way of the initiative

But not any sentence can also take the initiative to move from passive or vice versa Conditions to turn a sentence into the passive initiative is the question that must be a transitive verb (the verb exchange direction) Intransitive verb sentence (from internal instruction) can not be transferred to the passive Foreign oriented verbs are verbs require a direct object of the verb 'inward when they do not need a direct object

Eg: 1) She is making a cake A cake is being made by the her. a passer- by

transitive verb

2) They trembled along the beach every morning

intransitive verb

2.3.3 Practice

Applying the above knowledge, practice by doing the following exercises:

2.3.3.1 Exercise 1: Change the following sentences into the passive:

1.My father every flower waters this morning

->

2 John Invited to his birthday party last Fiona night

->

3 No one can move the heavy rock in his garden

->

4 Her mother is in the kitchen Preparing the dinner

->

5.We shouldnt clean teeth twice a day our

->

6 Did Mary buy this beautiful dress?

->

7.Some người sẽ interview the new president on TV

->

8.We can not finish our work on time

->

9.Her the her husband never takes to the cinema

->

10 He was doing his homework at 9 pm yesterday

->

However, at present under the decision of the Ministry of education and training, the foreign language courses is competition in the form of objective tests

in the semester exams and high school graduation or college exam, college Therefore, want to do well is the multiple choice quiz on the passive, the student must understand the passive structures, do exercises about switch to passive sentences will easily do multiple choice exercises experience Here are some exercises in the form of tests, will help students to consolidate their knowledge and question multiple choice quiz about being better

2.3.3.2 Exercise 2: Choose the correct answer to complete the following sentence:
