a necessity for students in primary school, it is as important as eating, sleeping, studying in their lives Therefore, they are always find the ways to spend time and in any condition playing When they join the games they will try the best voluntarily and proactively At that time they express their feelings very clear, They feel happy with victory and sad with failure Glad to see the team to complete the task, they personally not feel guilty when good is his duty Because of a collective they overcome difficulties and try their best to bring victory to the team, including their group This characteristic is very high emulation of the game So when joined the game, students often use their best effort, focus attention, intelligence and their creativity Learning games is the game that its laws includes rules associated with the knowledge and skills have been in learning activities, close to the lesson content, which helps students to explore their own experience to play Through playing students are applied the knowledge and learned skills in the situation of the games and therefore students a practice to consolidate and expand knowledge and skills learned Thus in the learning games, learning skills of English are included in the games Learning game changes forms of children’s activities, help students acquire knowledge in a positive voluntary way It helps students to practice and consolidate knowledge and develop experience through playing activities Learning games train skills, promote intellectual activity, Thank to using learning games the teaching process to become a fun activity and more attractive, learning opportunities more varied The learning game is not only the means but also the methods of education So I have used the method “Using some active games to improve the quality of teaching and learning English for students in grades at Vinh Thanh primary school’’ in the teaching process in the past year 2.2 Status of the problem: 2.2.1 Situation: 2.2.1.1 Advantages: - There is concern in the sector level, school board, parents and teachers - Students are progressively more aggressive look with this subject and most of them very eager to learn - The staff of teachers, ensuring the development needs of each school; copper the teachers are trained in the preparation, enthusiasm, energy and accumulation experience 2.2.1.2 Difficulty: - English is a difficult subject for students in grade so to attract students interested in learning this subject is so difficult to teach the children get the skills and coordination skills a mature way even harder for many reasons such as: SangKienKinhNghiem.net students not understand the importance of the subject so they are ignored, and learn coping mood; equipment in service of teaching and learning English in general and in particular to hear more limited, even teachers sometimes have to create teaching aids teachers even longer as the 'Artist' in the lessons due to lack of space intuitive map Especially teachers have to work as a "speaker" or in other words to the replacement of tapes of the hearing lesson In the process of teaching, some teachers teach according sticky reside always important how to complete the lesson, complete all objectives, students master the knowledge without paying much attention to how to acquire knowledge easiest way Led to some concern and fear children learn English from the results that affect learning English subjects For students, the skills that the difficult and often the children have psychological boredom, inattention and almost let go, some other students deal with the teacher in the class by copying the your results or copy available answers - And a few students had difficulty in reaching and grasping new language Since then, there is little impact on the quality of teaching and learning - Most students in rural areas, local pronunciation of English should read not ready, tend to pronounce the English way of Vietnam Specifically, students are often afraid to learn English because the attention of parents is limited Even many parents work away from you should have to live with the grandparents, the external factors are affecting learning problems lead to low academic performance On the other hand, the majority of parents not know English; So just to remind you mostly work hard Although conditions are not guaranteed or has been met no matter what part of the teachers we need to explore, create and overcome difficulties to make every lesson own skills and teaching process say general enjoyable, charismatic passion of student learning When teaching it myself perform the following steps: - Lead before (make students understand the requirements of the post) - Guess the event - Out-specific mission requirements of all, determine the focus - Conduct training all in steps: before, during and after - Use the appropriate procedure in the lesson, the visual aids in the post (if available and necessary) With the full implementation of such steps have yet lessons effectively 2.2.2 As a results, the efficiency of the situation: Being a teacher, I love my job, love my children so I always study the psychology of primary school age children (especially pupils in grade 3) They are also at the age of eating, sleeping and the giddy They remember fast but forget quickly, especially with English subject which is a fascinating subject but different from their mother tongue, so they not have the help when they not understand at home They can only be studied with teachers and friends in class, the fact that I teach in rural schools, many parents not understand deeply the SangKienKinhNghiem.net importance and necessity of the English subject and only focus on cultural subjects like Mathematics, Vietnamese - The majority of students are not paying attention and investing in foreign languages, they prepare the lesson very sparingly, to deal when they learn this subject very bad Since then, a number of children with psychological bored with learning English During school hours, the majorities of them are usually passive, lack of flexibility, afraid of reading - saying English and participate in learning lessons very little Therefore making interest and consolidating students' knowledge is an extremely important and regular work Because this affects a lot of to the students, a fundamental factor affecting the process of learning a language: To having the learning quality of the children achieve the best results, it is not an easy thing So how they form and develop learning skills most comprehensive? How they love, deepen their knowledge of the lesson? By any way to help students understand the lesson but not boring, I think that the lesson must be really charismatic, atmosphere during school hours interesting and relaxing Since then I checked the quality survey between the first semester of third graders, and the results showed that: Excellent Good Average Weak No % No % No % No % 3A 31 19,3 16.2 12 38,7 25.8 3B 27 18,5 14.8 10 37.1 29,6 3C 32 18,8 25 10 31.2 25 After that I conducted the survey to interest in their learning The results showed that: Behavior Class students Like Dislike Hesitating 3A 31 16 3B 27 16 3C 32 10 15 Therefore, the role and responsibilities of teachers not only teach English but need to continuously study and apply the methods of innovation and creativity Teachers should build a learning English environment friendly Students can participate in meaningful communicating activities through the interesting game activities Teaching according to the communicating method encourages students to practice lessons under the situation that learning is playing, playing is learning This view makes them see learning English as games, they will remember the lesson very quickly Class Students SangKienKinhNghiem.net 2.3 Solve the problem 2.3.1 The general solution: - Observe the actual situation of students Talk with them to find out the feeling, aspirations, problems they meet in the process of learning English - Study materials, books, magazines newspapers education read textbooks, teacher’s books and prepare the suitable games - Attend and exchange experiences with colleagues - Summary and draw experience in the teaching process - Interview directly pupils after the lessons they are participated in the games with the lessons which they are not joined the games - Consult closely with the school: The attention of the school facilities to create conditions for teachers and students can participate in the games - Encourage children to participate in computer games such as crossword in English, work square in English…or watch cartoons in English on TV to attract them into the process of game organization during class hours in a natural and effective way 2.3.2 Design the learning games in English: Organize learning games to teach English in general and in English in primary school in particular, we have to rely on lesson content, conditions of time in each specific class put the game accordingly co Song is also intended to organize games in teaching English to be highly effective, each teacher must have a plan prepared, thoroughly and ensure the following requirements: + Games meaningful education + The game aims to strengthen and deepen the lesson content + Games to fit psychology, student performance, consistent with the ability of the guidelines and conditions of the school facilities + Mode to a rich, diverse, and must be prepared carefully, meticulously + Games to be stimulating and passion for student learning 2.3.3 How to organize games: Step 1: The teacher introduces the name and purpose of the game, playing time Step 2: How to Play This step includes the following jobs: - Organization of participants Game: Number of participants, number of participating teams (those teams), management game, the referee - The instrument used to play (flipchart, cards, magnetic cards, chess ) - How to play: Each job's specific player or team play, play time, the players not get - How to confirm the results and scoring play, the solution of the game (If any) Step 3: Conduct game Step 4: - End game: Teachers or arbitration commented on the attitude of each participating team game, not good thing of the team to learn from experience SangKienKinhNghiem.net Encouragements fine quibble, the Rules that accept players relaxed and voluntarily make the game more attractive, stimulating students' learning Penalize students with the game rules simple but fun form as: Applause, hoop, sing a song, or greet you win 2.3.4 Introduction of the games in primary school: I would like to introduce some typical game that I've applied in the teaching process for primary school students Game 1: Guess the picture The purpose of this game helps students practice speaking from a temperate and efficiently - Draw a simple picture illustrates the need to review some of the words on A4 paper and put into a stack (You can use the stock picture from teaching) - For a student to select a picture (not for the other students to see the content of the picture) - The other students guess what it is contested by asking questions: "Is this a / an ?" - Students who guess correctly will be encouraged by point or clap cheer For example: on the location of the school (Unit 7: Places in My School) S1: Is this a computer room?
