can deny the importance of English in the life As a result, English has become a compulsory subject in schools and universities in Viet Nam The greatest purpose of studying English is to master the communicative skill of this language And among four basic skills: reading comprehension, listening, writing, and speaking is seen as the central skill to achieve the purpose However, in English class, teachers are mainly concern with teaching the points in the exams that need cope with and find necessary to encourage students’ participation Most of students are sitting quietly and listening rather than acting As a consequence, they just develop their ability on grammar task rather than the communicative one Moreover, in language learning, learners have to master four skills in which speaking is the most essential one for the aim at communication Thus, a big problem is how to develop students’ ability so speaking is not an easy work Furthermore, in the near future, the author will be an English teacher, so her wish is that through this study, she could find out some problems of that 10th form students are facing with speaking classes and give some useful suggestions to help students more succeed in speaking English In fact, there have many people writing about assignment concerning with speaking However, the author hopes that the study “Developing speaking skill through using language games for the 10th form students at Sam Son high school” is to be applied at high schools by teachers in Viet Nam because of its reality and easy practice Aims and Objectives of the study The study aims at: Providing some general knowledge about the speaking, its nature and position, Communicative Language Teaching Approach, language games Stt.010.Mssv.BKD002ac.email.ninhd

definition of speaking Speaking is an interactive process of constructing meaning that involves producing and receiving, and processing information Its form and meaning are dependent on the context in which it occurs, including the participants themselves, their collective experiences, the physical environment and the purpose for speaking 1.1.1.2 The nature of speaking Speaking involves language production and is therefore often referred to as productive skill Moreover, according to Byrne (1976: 8) “speaking is a two-way process between speaker(s) and listener(s) involving the productive skills of understanding” Byrne (1995: 10) gave the following diagram to show what happens in a speech situation and incidentally, therefore, what is involved in oral ability: Initiate Speak Respond Oral ability Listen In some situation, one person may all the speaking, so the speakers initiates and simply keeps us the flow of speech, for example giving a lecture, instructions and directions Normally, however, as in a conversation although one person initiates, the speakers and listeners are constantly changing the role and consequently the speaking involves responding to what has been regarded In this case, speaking is an integral part of listening So speaking belongs to integrated skill Stt.010.Mssv.BKD002ac.email.ninhd

increasing rapidly recently English teaching and learning, as a result, has gained much consideration Among activities affecting English learning, games are regarded as the key that leads to nature and accuracy in the communicative process Therefore, language game is a master concern to many teachers and educators The study aims at discussing some useful language games and theirs effects to achieve in language learning In the study, the definition is discussed from point of view: What is speaking skill, the importance of speaking skill, what is language game, and roles of language game in the teaching and learning, and how to organize language games Besides, based on the survey and the observation and the result of nearly two months in practicing time, the study gives some suggested games that teachers used effectively in speaking classes It is noteworthy that these games are easy and interesting enough to apply The value of them is really great and attractive Nevertheless, due to the limitation of knowledge, time and experience, the errors are probably inevitable and the study can not cover all aspects related to the matter The author herself hopes her findings will be some kind of supplementary information for those who are interested in developing students’ speaking skill by using language games Suggestions for further studies Due to the small scope of the paper, and the limitation of the author’s knowledge and experiences, this study can not cover all the aspects of the matter She would hope and recommend that further studies will be carried out other aspects of language games and give useful solutions to facilitate students in their learning English such as: - Developing speaking skill through using language games for the 11th and 12th form students at Sam Son high school - Developing speaking skill through using language games for the first year students at Vinh University Stt.010.Mssv.BKD002ac.email.ninhd
