1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Reasons for this topic In the industrialization and modernization of the country, our country is increasingly integrated into the international economy, the frequent contact with foreigners more and more English is the international language used widely around the world to help the peoples to understand each other better Because of that reason, English has been taught in schools across the country Thankfully, rather than primary school English teaching is included with many textbooks mass by the Ministry of education and training expertise has helped elementary students acquainted with the English language Although English is the primary electives However, it has important properties beginning in the next school year in grade II So it holds a significant role in the learning process of the children It equips them vocabulary, grammar and sentence patterns minimal, basic, simplest revolves around the theme very close, was their favorite and familiar, is the point of introducing all relatives, friends school topics, family topics, and other topics (the world around them) Therefore, to inspire and reinforce students’ knowledge is an extremely important work often Because this affects a lot more motivated students, a basic factor to impact the process of learning a language: No child will not learn motors - and the consolidation of knowledge also inculcate over the corpus of the lessons learned in a systematic way, as a solid foundation to help them learn better, more confident in the learning process later For the quality of their courses to achieve the best results it is not an easy thing So how they form and develop learning skills most comprehensive? How I love them, inculcate knowledge of foreign cultures? In any way to help students understand that not all solid boring, to truly charismatic, playful atmosphere in class comfort, inspire students to absorb foreign culture that they themselves not know anything It is very necessary to the support of the Communist Party of Vietnam, Vietnamese State, Vietnamese Education and especially the teachers, parents to accomplish to this objective Foreign language teaching industry-second language is always more fluctuations and changes in rhythm general evolution of civilization and world culture The teaching of foreign languages in general and English in particular in primary school education are many educators, many educational projects and numerous teachers of foreign languages interested and give more integrated teaching methods The strengths and weaknesses of each statistical method to teach and help people can compare, comparison, adjusted to draw experience from which the wise decision to choose for themselves the teaching style with the needs and goals of the school in terms of teaching and practical circumstances For primary school students today, LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com English has become so popular and teachers also give students a new knowledge, methods of learning to know, the tricks, skills in learning, so they have a wealth of knowledge to use in any context as listening, speaking, reading and writing Moreover, the communication is a more accurate way Here the problem is that teachers must constantly innovate methods of teaching in the new situation today First on their own perceptions, I boldly give a few thoughts on "Promoting positive in forging speaking English for pupils at grade through pairworks and groupworks” So the question for every teacher is really to innovate their approach to meet the training needs now, to be aware of the value and practice all forms of teaching in a meaningful way, use visual aids the most effectively 1.2 Research purposes In fact of teaching shows that there are many students passionate about learning English, they remember and pronounce very well They are actively talking in class because due to skills language and because of the efforts themselves However, English at primary school is electives subject, thus many pupils and many parents have not focused and invested in this course Many children prepare lesson is still sketchy Addition, primary school pupils are children of small age, the level of awareness is low, the quality of learning is asynchronous English vocabulary has a different writing and reading so they not avoid the unfamiliarity when talking or speaking Since, many pupils have not good psychology They are not confident, not really flexible in the courses and they are not to forge a positive reading, speaking in English, less involved speaking to learn the lesson This is also bring many challenges for teachers as well as encourage pupils to participate attention to the lecture On the basic of teaching methods combined with the observation: First of all, we know what is teaching method? As a system of continuous impact of teachers to organize activities for students are aware of learners acquiring the components of the educational content in order to achieve its objectives 1.3 The object research: Students in grade at Vinh Tien Primary & Secondary School and students of Vinh Loc district 1.4 Research Methods: Language activities in the classes are conducted through speaking and writing form Listening - Speaking - Reading - Writing must be focused so instructors need to create conditions for students to practice maximum with the necessary support of the theory, active participation in class activities, learning, language training to form new habits and skills can be used in a foreign language proficiency and initiative Addition to teaching English effectively in the process of LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com teaching in the classroom, teachers need to know and coordinate measures and effective optimization Need to grasp the knowledge, expertise, attention to each skill Speaking is understood as a production skill and interaction skills This means reading is not only a process of creating sound, language and the individual question, but it is also a process of communication to exchange information between people and people Reading is different from listening, speaking and writing, When study reading, pupils can study alone; it requires or more people when study speaking Therefore, when the teacher takes the class, they need to know how to organize classes to school can achieve the best results The teacher organizes for pupils to participate in order to find something new instead of just give them knowledge The teacher will observe, lead, and control activities so that students achieve the best results The use of analytical methods and grouped in pairs to teach speaking and other subject has created a major change: instead of teacher works as a center of studying, pupils is center of teaching and learning activities This is entirely consistent with the current trend of education: pupil is center In summary teachers are encouraged to organize training activities in the form of divide pairs and groups to speaking lesson become enjoyably and appealing for all students The new points of experience initiative In order to eliminate and prevent adverse effects to the learning process Through a number of solutions following may help students to actively speak English than in the class: Activities through pair activities Organization according group form To use game in the speaking lesson 2.THE CONTENT 2.1 Theoretical basis of the problem English is not new to primary pupils, the majority of primary schools have taken English courses in the program for pupils familiarize from grade Most of them initially very excited about this new subject, they are like the children learn to speak - like to say Therefore the first step is to form a habit for pupils to communicate and to equip them vocabulary, grammar and simplest sentence which revolve around the theme of closeness and familiarity with them It is towards the objectives of the curriculum in English at the higher level and helps pupils to practice English skills The process of learning and mastering English is a process through oral ago, wrote the following the order Listening - Speaking - Reading - Writing on the basis LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com of communication The positive promote English speaking of pupils to help them really involved in the communication process and the activities that teachers given in lectures and everyday life How to promote positive of students speaking English is extremely important Thus to demand teachers who have a passion for their job always up plans, programs, improving forms of teaching methods more effective 2.2 Status of teaching and learning English at Vinh Tien Primary & Secondary School Advantages: Vinh Tien Primary & secondary School has been always regarded as "the pioneer" of Vinh Loc education, with traditional eager to learn, with the attention of the leaders of the school which strong expertise, enthusiasm and dynamism who are enabling teachers perform their assigned tasks Teachers are young people with full of enthusiasm, qualification above standard and standard, facilities of the school is t full and proper criteria Vinh Tien Primary & secondary School learn new model Therefore many students are communication, enhanced life skills, language development is relatively good They are always boldly, close to the teacher Especially with the class 3A, 3B Chairman of autonomy is respected, dynamic, knows many things The self-management council committee was assigned the task very clear, specific The children in the class are always help each other in learning Difficulties: Besides the above advantages, there is still a lot of difficulties such as: Vinh Tien is a rural school with a majority of pupils who are children of farmers, families are struggling Some families, parents only care for the family economy but not really interested in children’s learning and urge them to learn They think that children are taught by teachers Teachers are teaching many hours, time devoted to research to explore the teaching methods appropriate to each type of pupils is limited Pupil aware independent learning is not high, not confident with their ability Therefore, they sometimes are passive in group activities * Results of the status: This is the students, results of a test of grade in the academic year 20192020: LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com How to promote positive student learning to speak, inspire and develop effective self-study? This is the question always puzzled me To solve this problem, after a process of teaching, I have tried to explore and manipulate the various teaching methods and results show that the method divide into pairs and groups typically considered to be easy to implement methods and highly effective with many advantages Thus I have concluded for myself "Promoting positive in forging speaking English for pupils at grade through pairworks and groupworks” I introduced with colleagues and ask for comments 2.3 The measures have been used to solve the problem The teachers who teach English always want to create a relaxed, lively and effective atmosphere for students For each of the subjects, both teachers and pupils have encountered many difficulties to overcome and transcend In teaching and speaking English, pupils need to pass the fear, embarrassment, anxiety To really involve in the communication process and the activities that teachers make in lessons The teachers play a very important role in helping students to have the confidence to express opinions, thoughts and feelings in English in the class with friends, teachers, and in the necessary unexpected situations occur in everyday life In order to encourage pupils to actively participate in speaking English, teachers need to apply the new method to elicit fit in student for goal, need, interested in chat in foreign language By using the methods taught in pairs and groups, teachers can organize activities to communicate in English to give students a lesson in nature, serious and highly effective Through these activities the students became the subject of activity, directly and actively receiving the knowledge and opportunity to practice speaking skills as well as their pronunciation *Activities through pairworks To use pair activities reduces the pupils’ shame when they must to speak in the class Some activities bring good effect to encourage pupils become more active in speaking lessons We have activities in detail: LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com - Picture quiz - Interviewing - Story from objects - Tap - In debate - Role play = Telephone skills Where, Role play - Telephone skills (Karins ESL partyland/www Eslparrtyland Com) requires pupils more effort *Role play - Telephone skills - The teacher needs to prepare: + Some card to deliver for pupils + Tools for

have to talk about the topic is written or drawn on the cards that they receive A and B not know each other because the talks are taking place on the phone A caller, B is the answer, and vice versa LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com -Each pair will have minutes (or more) to perform their role is then to other couples in the class This activity stimulates and attracts students in situations teacher made on the card and case development around the idea of students The children are given the circumstances and situations that occur in everyday life, it's close to them The only difference is that they need to express them in the language they are learning Through this exercise the student will be speaking skills through conventional, such as the call and answer the phone Working in pairs, the students are given the liberty activities in the framework to help them be able to assert yourself clearly Since then help them to have the confidence to speak English in the group, before the class and more natives In other words these activities promote student training to be able to manipulate the situation in language learning in specific situations may be encountered in life and daily work 2.3.1 Organization according group form Divide pupils into groups to work as a type of activity is common in the unit said today Maybe because of the number of students in each group crowded enough to make the discussion lively and interesting enough to give every team member has the opportunity to give their opinion Of course, all of them must be in English In a group of students may find themselves as members of a team to participate in a competition Pupils’ psychology is always effort to win, so everyone tried because "national colors" Here are the activities that give pupils the opportunity to learn and practice speaking skills, help pupils to consolidate and improve their ability to communicate flexibly manipulate their English - Hypochondriac

debate - Running dictation (Nancy - teaching speaking skill) In this section, I offer two ways to organize activities 2.3.2 Small group - card list Teachers divide students into small groups, each group of 6-8 people Teachers photocopy of the card so that all students have the card In groups, pupils will shuffle the cards together and upside them down on the table so that no one can see the information on each card Pupils will be selected according to the turn card and kept secret about information written on it If on which the word "Truth" pupils will have to tell a story of any about their truth If on the name of a topic or drawing, pupils will have to tell the story in their LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com imagination The remaining pupils in the group will guess whether the pupil tells a true story, or because they think 2.3.3 Tell us about… Teachers divide students into small group, each with about pupils Teachers ask each group to prepare pieces of paper records from to 5, and pieces of paper that pupils sign up Then fold the paper and each student holding a piece of paper which signs the name Teachers give each group one copy of the painting that teachers selected the topic In group, pupils will select any number you when to plays That will equivalents with their position on the drawing from point "Start" pupils will be LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com asking for information on where we stand If you put the wrong student must be about the position it has stood Who is to be the "Finish" earliest, it was winner * The form of group activities, we will increase the number of pupils participating, as well as the opportunity to quickly access shall, feedback from pupils and monitoring students' activities easily Teachers can go around the class to monitor their activities, help when needed and sometimes can participate in discussions about a child's small tubers point Thus the gap between pupils and teachers was narrowed easily sand they tell their comments more easily their feeling, their though * Advantages, disadvantages and remedies of pairworks and groupworks Work in pairs or group has recently become universal in the foreign language classroom according communication perspective Form work in pairs or group can assist with all forms of working class or working with individuals These activities, in pairs or group two-dimensional nature, enhance the exchange of information through the student facilitates the communication activities in the classroom practice However, like other forms of work in other classes, pairworks and groupworks have advantages and disadvantages Pros: Environment in the classroom is relaxed, more comfortable with activities that require pupils to work together to perform Pupils have many opportunities to speak English better Pupils feel free, confident and more willing When speaking, it is not under pressure from teachers, such as fear of making mistakes, being the teacher prompts and repair Promoting pupils actively promote their initiative to cultivate, develop speaking skills Help teachers solve the problem of overcrowded classrooms pupils of different foreign language skills by placing pupils in small groups In group, pupils may have the same degree or level differences depending on the requirements of each activity and each lecture All pupils are required to make every effort to work because they are aware of their role as a team member to participate in a contest where there are winners and losers Help pupils avoid the major worry and fear when it hurt To create conditions enhanced opportunities to contribute and build all of our students To increase frequency of training and work, saving time To increase opportunity for many pupils to work in the same time To enhance communication, exchange, cooperation of help each other To create the conditions for teacher to work as a guider and adviser LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 10 Cons: Be easy to make noise that affect to other class Pupils can make mistakes when working together Teachers are hard to control all activities of students in the same time Not all students in the class are involved in teaching and learning activities are given Maybe some of you sit hiding behind you hard, whispered talk And sometimes they just a monologue in their group other passive silence Freedom learning environment can make pupils are lazy and lacking in selfdiscipline distraction lesson Pupils may not work if not voluntarily or harder to handle such cases The way to overcome the disadvantages: Pairwork has many advantages, especially in the exercise of the function words, if overcome these drawbacks, the form will promote the advantages as mentioned above In fact, when pupils work in pairs or group, teachers will have no control over the pupils’ speech and not necessarily control all Moreover, all activities mentioned above are causing the noise is inevitable because most students have to move, to speak and sometimes laugh and scream again But these are the "good noise" However, when conducting work in pair or group, I the following: * Instructions exercise or task requirements set out a clear way * Before to working in pairs or groups must be well prepared: samples or examples given sufficient data which is necessary for the exercise * I mingle and listen and help to cover general and timely support when pupils need * After pupils complete the exercise in pair or group I check comments, suggestions, fixes or provide the correct form in a timely manner to motivate and encourage them * Need a reasonable pair or group, students can choose to have the same degree or other qualifications to work together, depending on the intent and on the nature of the exercise * Regulation of time doing exercises in a specific way The time to work in pair or group: - Pairwork form appropriate conversation activities between two people together so that it is suitable with all kinds of exercises such as: Practice sample sentence after the introduction of new corpus and after a few minutes of practice for the class Practice exercises the language grammar Practice the short conversation: Casting conversation, the same conversation as the conversation model with hints available The communication exercises Read the text and then answer the questions on the contents of article LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 11 There are several ways implemented as: Pupils perform the questions in pair or group and then read the text to find the answer Pupils read the text by themself, then ask and answer question about the content in pair or group Discussion (exchangeable pair or group can then offer the same class exchange) Pairworks can apply for the same activities, but some people need more than such discussions, solve problems, make plan for conversation with more than 2people The organization pairworks or groupworks There is many ways to organize for pairworks: - Between teachers and pupils - Open pair: Two pupils sitting separate - Closed pair: Between two pupils sitting next to each other To avoid boring when working in pair, I use flexible organizations such pairs, not necessarily in a form, so that always create the new environment and the need to communicate in order course between pupils and between pupils and teachers While working in pair and group I walked around the table to track listening and support as needed when operating the form of work in pair or group, I give pupils a habit to follow some rules need necessary to ensure the required exercises such as: Need to listen carefully to the requirements of the assignment Need to make the request, indication Need to start and stop when requested Need to quickly switch from one activity to another activity when teachers ask No attempt was made to finalize the bad Need to work voluntarily, not too noisy In my case I always guided and clearly assigned to pupils understand the work to be done and I strongly encourage students to ask when problems arise I always record the common error or point to note is to point out to pupils and help pupils fix later Using games in speaking English lessons In addition to using the above-mentioned activities, we can also use some fun games to encourage pupils to participate more actively in lessons They are interested to participate in the game even if it requires them to apply their English For example: - Whisper (www.askoxford.com) - Being an actor or actress (from internet) - Drawing picture (www.eslpartyland.com) - Lucky number - Noughts and crosses - Hangman LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com 12 - Shark attack - Guessing game… In this section, I would like to introduce an effective game that is highly effect that is Whisper (www Askoxford.com) *Whisper game: Teachers divide pupils into small groups, in which they sit in a circle S1 think of a phrase or sentence in English and whisper to S2, then S2 whisper sentence to S3 until that question whisper back S1 Then S1 will speak the original sentence structure and the sentence that S1has got then compare change between two sentences These words are very much different than the original It makes a fun and funny when joining games * This is a simple gambling game, easy to organize and easy to play but highly effective for listening and speaking practice Pupils are very excited because unexpectedly weak and witty game * A model teaching plan using pairworks and groupworks in Tieng Anh 3: Period 36th: UNIT 6: STAND UP!
