PART A: INTRODUCTION Rationale Acquiring vocabulary is a critical issue to help students develop their vocabulary to speak English and improve their speaking skills In Wilkins‟ words (1972:111) “Without grammar, very little can be conveyed; without vocabulary nothing can be conveyed” Krashen argues that vocabulary plays a fundamental role in verbal communication “In order to communicate well in a foreign language, students should acquire an adequate number of words and should know how to use them accurately If acquirers not recognize the meaning of the key words used by those who address them they will be unable to participate in the conversation” (Krashen, 1983 cited in Lewis, 1993: 23) He further clarifies that if the students‟ vocabulary is poor, they cannot communicate effectively no matter how good their grammatical knowledge might be “If our students know the morphology and the syntax of an utterance addressed to them, but not know the meaning of key lexical items, they will be unable to participate in the communication For this reason, we are not impressed with approaches that deliberately restrict vocabulary acquisition and learning until the morphology and syntax are mastered” (Krashen, 1983 cited in Lewis, 1993: 23) Three basic elements of a language are phonology, vocabulary and grammar In fact, both grammar and phonology are embedded in vocabulary because we cannot teach vocabulary without teaching the students how to pronounce the words and how words are put together to make grammatical sentences According to Michael Lewis (1993), vocabulary is more than

words; they are “grammaticalised lexis” (1993: vii) However, EFL teachers seem to overemphasize learning grammar more than vocabulary in their teaching The role of vocabulary has long been underestimated in EFL education Lewis (1993) proposes the Lexical Approach and brings the field to systematically examine the nature of lexis in second language acquisition According to him “the grammar/ vocabulary dichotomy is a false Often when „new word‟ are introduce into the class it will be appropriate not simply to present and record the word but to explore the grammar of the word” (Lewis, 1993: 115) He strongly argues that “language consists of grammaticalised lexis, not lexicalised grammar” (Lewis, 1993: vi) The pairing of grammar and vocabulary is best seen in lexical chunks, which are retrieved and processed as whole units These units may not only enhance the accuracy and fluency of the language, but also speed up language processing significantly These characteristics of lexical chunks motivate me to experiment using lexical chunks to develop my students‟ speaking skills Aims of the study The thesis is primarily aimed to gain understanding of the extent to which lexical chunks can motivate and benefit students in their speaking activities and then give some suggestions for teachers to stimulate students to speak and overcome the difficulties they face with in using lexical chunks to teaching speaking skills and some suggestions for the next cycle of the research on the topic Research questions The study was designed to answer the following questions: (1) To what extent does the use of lexical chunks influence the students‟ motivation to speak English as measured by their self-

Scope of the study The study is limited to the understanding of the impact of using lexical chunks on students‟ speaking skills development It is just a small – scale action research project, which was undertaken to improve my teaching practice Method of the study A quantitative method was used to gain the aim of this study, which is exploratory in nature Data were collected by means of pre- and post – treatment questionnaires It is noted that the primary aim of the study is to gain understandings of the extent to which using lexical chunks can support students in learning to speak English for my teaching practice rather than to find out the cause – and – effect relationship between the use of lexical chunks and students‟ speaking proficiency Therefore, pre – and post – treatment questionnaires are appropriate for this aim Design of the Study The thesis is composed of three following parts: Part A: Introduction provides the rationale, aims, scopes, method and design of the

PART C: CONCLUSION Conclusion The present study has shown that lexical chunks have a positive effect on the students‟ speaking skill Lexical chunks are fixed or semi-fixed, which are stored and produced automatically as whole units in the process of language acquisition Therefore, chunks provide an easily retrievable frame for language production and decrease the speakers‟ pressure to decode individual words Lexical chunks can promote language fluency, enhance language accuracy, and increase speakers‟ motivation, which is due to the fact that chunks would allow speakers to produce expressions that they are not yet able to construct from their linguistic system The study has realized many different factors hindering teachers from using lexical chunks Some of these factors belong to students‟ traditional learning habit and others are my own teaching experience with new method To sum up, lexical chunks seem to play an important role in supporting the students to learn to speak English They serve as the key to the fluency and accuracy which motivate students to participate in the speaking lesson Implications The findings of the study suggest that the use of lexical chunks can help to make speaking tasks easier to the students This is evidenced in the students‟ self-reported increase in their confidence and participation in classroom speaking tasks In order to achieve better results of lexical chunks, the teachers need to choose the lexical chunks carefully to make sure that the selected lexical chunks are related to the topic of the lesson However, when applying this classroom strategy, the students may have some difficulty at first because they need to change their speaking habit Thus, teachers need to

be patient It always takes time for the students to become familiar with the new teaching technique In order to help the students, awareness-raising activities can help This involves telling the students explicitly why lexical chunks are useful and what a lexical chunk is To establish the concept of lexical chunks in learners‟ minds and give them opportunities to identify, organize and record lexical chunks, warm-up activities should be designed to review lexical chunks taught the previous day and practice these structures through question and answer In addition, the teacher should create frequent classroom activities such as repetition and recycling of activities, and second language comparisons, translating chunk-by-chunk, highlighting lexical chunks, which may help learners develop the skill of identifying different lexical chunks It is more effective to teach basic and simple lexical chunks first Basic lexical chunks should be taught first to facilitate the acquisition of native-like proficiency Initial instruction should focus on relatively fixed expressions that occur frequently, rather than originally created sentences Because lexical chunks enjoy different degrees of variability and flexibility, teachers may begin by introducing a few basic fixed and semi-fixed patterns, and then teach increasingly variable chunks In addition, it is more effective to teach lexical chunks in a real life context or with relevant pictures which will help learners memorize lexical chunks easily and practice structures without getting bored Limitations of the study and suggestions for the next cycle of research This action research has yielded some useful information to my teaching I am now convinced that the use of lexical chunks can be one of the classroom techniques or teaching strategies that I can use to help my students

of learners This is also included in my next cycle of this action research Another limitation is that the findings of the study not tell me anything about the students‟ improved speaking performance or proficiency Although the students were largely positive about the teacher‟s use of lexical chunks, their responses are likely just their impression This is especially true when I used only the questionnaire as the method of data collection In the next cycle, I need to design a pre-test-post-test study to measure the impact of the use of lexical chunks on the students‟ speaking proficiency
