Trang 1PART I: INTRODUCTION
Today, in the integration trend, knowing and using fluent English are putting out is a requires pressing for people especially students, intellectuals and businessmen To meet that requirement, in recent years the Ministry of Education and Training has continued to be the strategic direction as instead of Text-books, teaching methods innovation, organization of specialized teacher training For general language courses, English in particular, required to be set out as people learn to use are fluent English in communication Thus, from program ex Text-book and former method focuses on teaching to learners can read, self study-taught the grammar translation method, Text- book program was transferred to the new, new teaching methods-practical method of communication The replacement program of Text- book and new teaching methods have much positive effect such as: teaching process becomes more vivid, the student was confident, more boldly in communication and some I can use English to communicate in situations in daily living activities However any have a point that almost all teachers are noticing that is: when using Text- book program and new teaching methods, the majority of the pupils are not mastering the grammatical phenomena
In the past years, under the direction of the Department of Education and Training , the innovative teaching methods towards promoting active students has made use of and got many successful achievements
In view of MOET direction , secondary English books compiled thematic standpoint With the most basic method is to promote positive , proactive learners and create optimal conditions for training learners develop the ability to use language for purposes of communication In the process of learning a foreign language , students have to be trained and promoted fully 4 skills speaking -listening skills to read and write In the communication process , students are often exposed to all dialogue, dialogue in the articles , the questions are extremely important , and the question is a decisive stage of the communication process Moreover, Many students find it difficult to do exercises about making questions for the undelined words, which mean they don’t really understand the roof of the problems Another reason is that making questions helps students to develope their ability of thought and ability of languages Because of the importance of questionaire in the process of communication and doing exersies, so I have been thinking to find ways to help students improve their ability to communicate with
the topic:
“ Some experience help 6 th graders make question for the underlined words”
Even in the first moment of contact with English , students have been practicing these basic questions like : " How are you ? " , " What's your name ? " ,
"Where do you live ? ' , Next students regularly exposed to questioning In each class through activities , especially through the active discussion groups
Trang 2( Groupwork ) and the pair ( Pairwork ) Therefore, all teachers are already thinking of guides to assist students with homework questions However, students still find it difficult to practice guides, yet highly effective topical should I write this thesis to the eachers who are teaching English in secondary schools to discuss unification of teaching students questioning underlined
PART II : SOLVING PROBLEMS
I Rationale
Today language learning has become popular in educational level , fields of study Foreign language courses have become indispensable in most secondary schools across the country This is also the subject which occupies the third position , after Mathematics and Language Arts Therefore, investing in foreign language learning was very important to parents , and more importantly, since the school year 2011-2012, the Ministry of Education has officially announced the implementation blocks including A1 three subjects are : Mathematics Physics -English This is an opportunity and a challenge for both teachers and learners of English in particular and in general language
But not everyone is successful in teaching and learning foreign language because this is a little discipline required skills , it is not hard enough to lead to success There must be a combination of many factors for success
For secondary school pupils , besides working hard, they should have a great passion and determination They must grasp the basic elements of each class , learn how to synthesize knowledge after each lesson To use knowledge from which to
do the writing exercises " Make questions for the underlined parts".
This form of exercise is very important to language learners, it helps to reinforce the learning of new knowledge , it has accumulated knowledge grammar But students , especially students in grade 6 have been encountering quite a few problems with this form of exercise , they are determined not to ask , using appropriate auxiliary verbs provided for each question, so it’s necessary that all the teachers should create accents , unique methods in this form of exercise to help them remember more questioning skills Further more we should help students get the best knowledge for different types of writing assignments
II Current status of the problem
The questions frequently appear in the units taught in grades 7 through section “Listen and Read”, “Listen and Read” then answer the questions , the dialogue article , the critical reading , In fact , students often practice affairs further difficulties , some children do not all lead to low results in learning English
in school subjects The survey indicated that the quality of the academic year 2020-2021( the first term) are as follows
Trang 3Class Total Excellent Good Average Bad Worse

Thus the results of our survey show the number of poor students still accounted for a significant amount Although this is a key university , high quality
of the district From the current situations , I found myself necessary to change so that I can help students to have the best results in this form of exercise
III Solution and implementation
First of all I made some notes to help them realize the requirements of this type of exercise
* Introduce some attention when homework question for the underlined
- First of all we must determine the question words
- Underlined words will never appear in questions
- If in question :
+ Use verbs often have to borrow auxiliary verb and auxiliary verb to the island before and after from the subject to ask
Eg : They play football everyday
= > What do they play everyday ?
+ If the sentences " verb tobe " , "modal verb " we need only invert verb “be " ,
" modal verb" before and after from the subject to ask :
Eg : She is now planting trees
= > What is she playing now?
- If the underlined word sentences using the following words , when we turn to the question corresponding to the following exchange :
1 I, We => You
2 me, us => you
3 mine, ours => yours
4 my, our => your
5 some => any
* Introduction to frequently asked words in English :
What : What ( Used to ask for things , things, events )
Which : What ( used to ask if there is a choice )
Where : Where ( used to ask for position , place )
Trang 4When : When (Ask for time , time )

* If the students’ability of thought is low I ask them to cover part of the sentence which is underlined and translate it into Vietnamese And then you 'll find the words to ask the question what is provided
* The main solutions of teaching style exercises questions for the underlined
1 Measure 1: Making a deep knowledge helps students understand and remember the words to ask :
Have students do this exercise , the teacher allows the students to inculcate and question words
- Step 1 : The teacher suggested writing a second from the board ( what , where , how )
- Step 2 : The teacher divide the class into two teams each team one color chalk on the blackboard to write the words that they have learned to ask , just £ 1 per child
up The purpose of this work to mobilize all pupils , active and colorful lessons
- Step 3 : Teacher edit and score points for each team The team that scored more words and correct, that team wins
- Step 4 : Teacher supply the suspension side table to table ( summary)
Trang 64 When Khi nào Thời gian
6 How Như thế nào Hỏi sức khoẻ, đánh vần, cảm giác,phương tiện
7 How often Thường không Hỏi sự thường xuyên
12
được), hỏi giá cả
2 Measure 2: Organizing activities help students identify questions and practice questions
- Step 1 : The teacher suggested to students repeated using the verb "to be " verb and often :
+ They have learned the forms of the verb "to be " What is it ? (Is / am / are )
+ When can write into question ( question ) the verb " to be " standing where? ( Before the subject )
+ Verb is often just what the word ? ( The action )
+ When writing to questions they have to do? The teacher writes a few suggestions from the board ( go , play , read )
- Step 2 :
Divide the class into 2 teams and 2 teams of teachers to request the records from which they have learned Each wore a distinctive pastel Note each team only once
on Table 1 children ( the purpose of facilitating all activities are subject to more exciting classes )
Teachers observe and score points for each team , the team that scored more words and correct, that team wins
- Step 3 : Hook side table summarizes how to write questions for the verb "to be " and auxialary verbs:
What
Where
When
Is/ am / are + S (subject)….?
Trang 7
Who
How
Which…
Does/ do + S + V-inf ?
Look at this summary , students quickly identify the location of each type of writing to questions And when doing exercises with question words , teachers do not need much guidance that all students still do
- Step 4 : Practice Exercises for questioning underlined :
* Question 1 : Her name is Lan
The teacher models and verb landowners
Her name is Lan
S is ( what )
= > What is her name ?
Teachers and students answer questions Then S1 - S2 , S3 - S4 , respectively practices
* Question 2 : She goes to school by car
The teacher suggested students to find the subject , verbs and question words (underlined words ) : " by car" just something, students answered only means When the media asked , they use words to ask the word , students answer " How" , the teacher wrote the word " How" as underlined In the sentence that uses the verb
"to be "? What do we do ? Students look up a summary and answer the "does /do" Ask a student to write the answers on the board
She goes to school by bike
S V How
= > How does she go to school ?
From verse 3 onwards students do themselves ( work in groups ), teacher goes around the class to help the weaker students After students go to board to do , teachers correct errors and ask students to work in pairs ( open pair ) S1 S2 ; S3 -S4 ; S5 - S6
In this way , help students remember long sentence structure and practice learned skills listening , writing and speaking
3 Measure 3: Diversification of exercise questions
To maximize the dynamism and creativity of students, teachers should change this form of exercise other form of exercise , but also related to the " question words " from simple to complex forms
* Type 1 : Merge questions in column A with column B answers appropriately For example :
Trang 81 What are they going to do this
summer vacation?
2 Where is he going to stay?
3 How long are you going to
stay?
4 What are you going to do
tonight?
5 Is it a good movie?
6 How often do you read books?
7 What weather do you like?
8 How are we going to travel?
A for a week
B I like warm weather
C I think it is
D They’ re going to visit Suoi Tien Park
E By train
F Tonight, I’m going to do my homework
G He is going to stay in a hotel
H I read books everyday
Teachers can post homework content is available on the side panel for less time-consuming Form students do this exercise easier and less time-time-consuming , I think it's the most convenient and neat Students only need to look at is to know the answer select questions began to ask very fast Students vigorous activity
For example, in column B Question c "fine " about children 's health will choose the 1 in column A has the word "how " questions of health Similarly the question remains the same
* Type 2 : Fill in the blanks with words to ask :
Teachers also record content into the side panel Students also based on answers to questions from to fill the spaces This form of exercise is simple and less time consuming
For example :
1 ……… is that ? That is a map
2 ……… are you? Fine, thanks
3 ……… does your mother travel to work ? By car
4 ……… is Nam going ? He is going to the zoo
Answer key: 1 A map = > What 2 Fine = > How
3 By car = > How 4 The zoo = > Where
* Type 3 : Ask for suggestions in parentheses
This form of exercise is a bit complicated , as group activities , teachers ask quite good students as leader for the children to show their creativity Teachers correct and score
For example :
Trang 9He lives at 113 Nguyen Chi Thanh street ( Use the "Where " to ask )
= > Where does he live ?
* Type 4 : Rearrange the words into complete sentences :
Eg : How old / sister / is / your ?
= > How old is your sisster ?
4 Measures 4: Coordinate all at the same time listening speaking reading -writing during practice questions and answers :
Teachers promote group activities , pair , especially games like Lucky Numbers , preparing teaching aids fully promote the questioning of all the lessons
in the textbook and workbook exercises
5 Measure 5: Provide training forms for each type of verb, then the synthetic form of exercise
* EXERCISES
Teachers give homework for each format , ask students to work individually or in groups
Type 1: Make use of the verb to ask often to complete the following sentence :
