Which of communicative Pre-reading activities does your teacher use in reading lesson? How the students at Nong Cong high school improve the effectiveness of the reading tests?

Whether these activities: interesting, not very interesting, or boring? 1.4 Methodology - Practical research methods: observation, investigation, exchanges, questionnaires, summarizing experience - Method of experts: Exchanging experience of teaching reading lessons from a number of dedicated and experienced English in Nong Cong High School and in other school 1.5 New points of the study As seen from the reasons for choosing the topic, with my knowledge, this topic I focus on the following points Through controlled activities to be used to teach pre-reading in reading lessons of English 12, this helps students to be motivated to learn reading lessons To help impove the effectiveness of doing the reading tests for the students at Nong Cong High school CONTENTS 2.1 THEORETICAL BASES 2.1.1 The nature of language skills As a means of communication, language is divided into four skills, in which listening and reading are perceptive skills while speaking and writing are productive skills They are also consided according to the manners by which they are formed The skills that are related to articulate organs are called oral skills that include listening and speaking The ones in connection with manual script is named literacy skills that consist of reading and writing According to Carrel (1981:1), “for many students, reading is by far the most important of the four skills in a second language, particularly in English as a second or foreign language.” Reading plays a significant role of the four skills that cannot be denied To conclude, all the above skills for learners are integrated and supportive to each other Whenever students acquire those skills they can have confidence in using a foreign skill 2.1.2 Reading skill 2.1.2.1 The definitions of reading skill According to Ravinder Sandhu , “Reading is defined as a cognitive process that involves decoding symbols to arrive at meaning Reading is an active process of constructing meanings of words with a purpose to help the reader to direct

information towards a goal and focuses their attention” Despite the fact that the reasons for reading may vary, the primary aims of reading is to understand the text Additionally, there are also definitions made by many other scholars According to William (1984), he defines reading as a process whereby one looks at and understands what has been written Rohani Ariffin (1992:1) in her book entitled Anthropology of Poetry for Young People defines reading as a highly personal activity that is mainly done silently, alone There is a clear understanding that reading is something related to the activity of acquiring information and it is done either silently or aloud Reading is an interactive process between the reader and the writer Brunan W.K (1989) for instance defines reading as a two way interaction in which information is exchange between the reader and the author” Smith (1973) also shares the same attitude The learners try to interpret the text through their own experiences, but they may differ from the writer’s experiences This explanation reveals that reading is not just an active process, but also an interactive one Reading is closely linked with meaning For this reason, lack of shared assumptions presents the most difficult problem in reading To sum up, reading is a mental process so it needs other skills to be integrated with such as listening, speaking and writing 2.1.2.2 The importance of Pre-reading activities in learning reading It can not be denied that Pre-reading activities play a crucial important role in motivating the students through the reading lesson The aim of using Pre-reading activities is to activate the reader’s background knowledge, to prevent failure, and to support the reader’s interpretation of the text Employing Pre-reading activities in the first stage of the reading lesson can promote interaction between the reader and the text, which exerts to the development of a better self-awareness of the relationship between the reader’s meaning and the author’s meaning 2.2 PRACICAL BASES 2.2.1 Real situation of doing reading test from the students: To know the quality of doing the reading exercises of the twelfth form students, I have surveyed the comprehenion reading competence of 89 students from two classes at medium level with two reading passages including 15 questions with the different levels of difficulty to choose the gifted students for universities and colleges the time for two tests lasts 20 minutes the result of doing the tests of the students has shown below

from using the study in reading lessons The teaching experience was carried out among more than 89 students at grade 12 at Nong Cong High school This study reveals that the application of effective

lead in reading lessons, I have gained some certain results and get more possive feedbacks from students My students are more are eagerly engaged in any of my pre-reading activities even shy students and of course their understanding of the text is much better than that before Here are the result tables and chart showing some information after applying different pre-reading activities in comparison with that when using some common ways designed in the textbook This survey was conducted with the participation of 89 students of classes The quality of doing reading lesson on experienced objects After having been presented in front of my group of English on April nd, 2022 With acquring my collegues’ ideas, I have applied the study to my designing the reading lesson plans to the English classes I am teaching Through my evaluation, observation, I realise that there is a positive progress in practising my students’ reading skill The student are aware of the importance of improving vocabulary, concentrating on the strategies of doing reading lessons To prove the effectiveness of my study, I a survey again on 89 students from two classes which I have taught the strategies to the reading lessons, especially for the types of reading questions in the general secondary tests in the next July This survey, I also choose 89 students accidentally to a test of reading comprehension consisting of 15 questions, both common and advanced questions in 20 minutes The result shown in te chart below

Chart 2: The result of doing reading lessons after applying the study The chart demonstrates: Most students gaining from to true sentences make up to about 82%, the number of the students getting from to 12 corrects sentences acounts for 18% per the total 15 sentences This corresponds with over 18 percent getting over arverage marks of reading parts This result shows that the students’ reading competence is low, however, this rate compared with that in the table is much better, because the number of the students getting from to true answers reduced, whereas the students gaining from to true answer increase dramatically, even some of those students reaching to 12 correct answers, there is, however, noone getting the maximum score This result shows that the considerable impact of the study is proved to be effective Table below gives the facts to the question “What you think of these activities: interesting, not very interesting, or boring?” Pre - reading activities interesting normal boring using videos to introduce the text 75% 18% 7% using pre-reading questions 54% 28% 18%

15% 9% Look at the table 1, the most noticeable thing is that (80%) of the students finds using videos, and (75%) of them state that using brainstorming to introduce the text are interesting It can be understood that the preparation for communicative activities are time-consuming and hard for many teachers Besides, a large number of students enjoy other activities like using pictures and discussion, unfortunately, many of them think that explaining the instructions of the text and giving a brief introduction to the text are normal or even boring (based on few students’ choices) Table below gives the facts to the question “How often does your teacher use Pre-reading activities in reading lesson?” Pre-reading activities Always sometimes rarely never using videos to introduce the text 12% 37% 41% using pre-reading questions 55% 30% 13% 2% explaining the instructions of the text 56% 32% 11% 1% using discussion to introduce the text 39% 36% 17% 8% giving pictures to introduce the lesson 64% 16% 118% 3% using brainstorming to introduce the text 26% 44% 18% 12% 9% Table indicates that three activities such as: using pre-reading questions, explaining the instructions of the text and giving pictures are most frequently used by lots of the teachers Others activities like giving a brief introduction and discussion are

also chosen at the pre-reading stage by quite many teachers However, 40% of the students reports that their teachers rarely use videos to introduce the texts CONCLUSION 3.1 Conclusion It is thought that teaching is an art in which teachers are both creative and flexible.That communicative activities are widely used in teaching and learning English at many high schools has changed students’ attitude toward acquiring immense knowledge So far, thanks to the advantages of these kinds of activities, teachers of English have utilised them to improve the understanding and analyzing ability of their students However, the application of these activities at Nong Cong high school is limited and get some dificulties due to many factors In a single lesson, it is not likely for the teacher to use all these suggested activities presented in this study, therefore, the teacher should choose appropriate activities for different reading lessons with various purposes It is hoped that with the application of this advice, the teachers can help the students at Nong Cong High School learn the textbook more effectively 3.2 Proposals to the leaders After studying the problem, I see that the successful lessons depend on a lot of reference documents as well as visual aids, so the schools need to buy and add more equipment for teaching such as Conecting Internet, projectors, videos and reference books That will make the process of teaching and learning reading skill better
