of compilation of theme-based lexical lists in teaching vocabulary to primary students at a primary school in Ninh Binh In order to fulfill the aim of the study, the instruments employed to collect data were test, classroom observations and questionnaire for the students The results of the data analysis indicate that the students gave prominence to vocabulary teaching and learning through compilation of theme-based lexical lists The students also achieved considerable progress in their vocabulary retention after attending vocabulary lessons using compilation of theme-based lexical lists In addition, the findings of the research point out some recommendations to better situation for the benefits of the students, some of which are choosing well-suited materials, using compilation of theme-based lexical lists in combination with other activities such as games and mind-mapping The study is hoped to meet the teachers’ needs, increase the motivation of learners and teachers during learning vocabulary process iii TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.com

Median  Definition: Median is the number which would have the same amount of numbers both above and below it in the specified data group  The formula: Median = + i Here, N represents number of scores ∑f0 represents the sum of the frequencies or number of scores up to the interval containing the median fw represents the frequency or number of scores within the interval containing the median i represents the size or range of the interval  Excel formula: MEDIAN(number1, number2,…) Note: number1, number2,… are to 255 number corresponding to a sample of population For example, to calulate the median of pretest of experimental class, take the following steps: Enter the pretest scores of the experimental students from cell B2 to cell B41 Click on cell D2 – where the median will be entered Enter the formula =MEDIAN(B2:B41) to find the median of the set of pretest scores Press "Enter" to complete the formula and the median of pretest scores will appear in the cell

Standard Deviation  Definition: Standard Deviation (SD) is a statistical measure that captures the difference between the average and the outliers in a set of data  Formula: Here, n represents number of scores represents the sample mean  Excel formula: STDEV(number1, number2,…) For example, to calulate the standard deviation of pretest of experimental class, take the following steps: Enter the pretest scores of the experimental students from cell B2 to cell B41 Click on cell E2 – where the standard deviation will be entered Enter the formula =STDEV(B2:B41) to find the standard deviation
