2022 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com TOPIC: Promoting grade 10 students’ reading comprehension competence through guidedcloze theme based reading texts For the above reasons I choose the topic “Promoting grade 10 students’ reading comprehension competence through guided-cloze theme based reading texts.” The purpose of the research I apply this method in order to improve reading competence of grade 10 students who are using textbook Tieng Anh 10 model as material The subject of the research The subject is the guided-closed theme based reading texts, which is equivalent to the content of the units in the textbook Tieng Anh 10 Scope of the subject From unit to unit of the textbook Tieng Anh 10 model Research Methods 5.1 Theoretical research Based on the theory of reading comprehension and guided-close reading text on methodology book and the knowledge gained from the Internet 5.2 Practical research Based on the current situations of teaching and learning languages, the need to equip students with knowledge and skills in order to adapt new learning environment using digital platform Certainly, every family or each student has a cell phone with internet access, so why not apply technology in reading skill II CONTENT Theoretical and practical background 1.1 Theoretical background a Competence for reading According to Langer, a professor at Teaching College of Colombia University in America, for each reader with different basis knowledge will bring about different thought, imagination and appearance of the same text Therefore, the more reader‟s Academic Year 2021 -

2022 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com TOPIC: Promoting grade 10 students’ reading comprehension competence through guidedcloze theme based reading texts skills such as ICT, working skills and linguistic competence Therefore, graduated high school students have to pass standard level needed so as to continue their higher education Recently, many students have paid their attention to the competence tests conducted by prestigious universities in which foreign language makes up a large scale in this test As a result, the importance is raise higher than ever 1.3 The oriented qualities and competence gained in new secondary curriculum At the 8th Central Conference course XI Vietnamese Communist Party a resolution on extensive renovation in education was issued, in which continue to strongly innovate and comprehend basic elements in education Putting learner‟s qualities and competence into centre of teaching process, developing learner‟s virtue and abilities assuring teaching knowledge , morality and career orientation This renovation shift from content approach to competence approach, which lays down the need for changing the teaching methods Also in this conference, the target goals are set in the rudimentary and extensive educational renovation, that is pay attention to development of physical, mental, qualities and competence of a modern and model citizen Especially discover and cultivate aptitude in learners and guide them in choosing their future job In order to meet the initial target, education must centre on forming and developing learners‟ ideas for the future life in co-orperation with educate traditional value of the country 1.4 The real state of students’ reading skill at Tay Hieu Upper -Secondary School Through the teaching experience at Tay Hieu Upper Secondary school, I see that the majority of students not pay attention much to how to improve reading skills While the need for the this skill is getting higher and higher when students have to sit for important tests such as GCSE or University Competence Test not to mention Academic Year 2021 -
