- No checking
III Warm up:
- Introduce to students each skill
IV Guiding:
* Introduce to students how to practice reading,
speaking, listening, writing, language focus and
how to master learning English
1/ How to learn READING and vocabulary
•Read something every day
Children's books, simplified readers (Penguin),
newspapers, magazines, Internet sites, novels …
•Read what interests you
Remember that you learn better when you are
having fun
•Read at the appropriate level
You want to learn new vocabulary, but you also
want to understand what you are reading If you
are looking up every word, the reading is too
difficult
•Review Who, What, Where, When, Why for
each story you read
You can do this for almost any type of reading
Who is it about? What happened? Why did it
happen? Where did it take place? When did it
take place? This is very useful when you have no
comprehension questions to answer You can
write or speak your answers
•Record vocabulary in a personal dictionary
oKeep this notebook separate from other work
oRecord vocabulary in alphabetical order (an
English address book works well because it has
letters of the alphabet)
oRecord the part of speech (sometimes there is
more than one)
oWrite a sample sentence for yourself (don't use
the one from the dictionary)
2/ How to learn SPEAKING and
pronunciation
•Talk to yourself
Talk about anything and everything Do it in the
privacy of your own home If you can't do this at
- Greeting the T
- Answer
- Listen to the teacher
- Put the student’s book and workbook on the table
- Listen to the teacher and look through the books
- Take notePractice reading all the passages in the textbook
Trang 3first, try reading out loud until you feel
comfortable hearing your own voice in English
•Record your own voice
This might feel very uncomfortable, but it will
help you find your weak pronunciation points
Listen to yourself a few days later Which sounds
do you have difficulty hearing?
•Participate in class
•Learn common idioms
•Understand the sounds that your language
doesn't have
For example, many languages don't have the "r"
sound These sounds require extra practice
•Recognize that teachers are trained to
understand you
When you get out into the real world, average
people will have a more difficult time
understanding you unless you practise speaking
slowly and with proper pronunciation
•Practise minimal pairs
•Study word and sentence stress
•Practice tongue twisters
3/ How to learn LISTENING
•Listen to the radio
Don't always have a pen in hand Sometimes it
helps to just listen
•Use Internet listening resources
4/ How to learn WRITING and spelling
•Keep a diary/journal
Don't always pay attention to grammar
Free-writing can be very useful It can show you that
writing is fun Have fun with the language
•Write emails in English
Stay in contact with teachers or other students
•Rewrite your local news in English
This is another exercise that can be done on a
daily basis Remember that regular activities are
the best ones
•Learn important spelling rules
Remember, you won't always have a dictionary or
a spell-checker handy, especially when you are
writing a test Even native English speakers need
to review the spelling rules from time to time
5/ Improve Your Grammar
Good grammar prevents ambiguity By contrast,
bad grammar confuses your reader, slows their
reading, and shows your ignorance, which can
- Listen to the teacher
Practice listening to an English song
- Listen to the teacher
- Listen to the teacher
- Listen to the teacher
Trang 4lose you respect, influence, and credibility.
•Make sure you at least know the parts of speech,
such as nouns, verbs, and adjectives Find fun
ways to learn the parts of speech
•Know the difference between the active voice
and passive voice Using the active voice is one of
the best ways to give power to your writing.
•Also, learn the basics of punctuation, especially
when to use a comma

we were in grade 4
If I was to describe how she looks, I would say she is very pretty She is not very tall and quite slim She has a round face with long black hair, big eyes and regular white teeth That’s why many people say that her smile can brighten up even the cloudiest day.
She has a very nice personality and a wonderful sense of humour She is also very intelligent and studious.
The first thing I like about Mai is that she shares the same interests with me We both enjoy listening to music and collecting stamps In addition, she is very good at Maths and she helps
me a lot with difficult exercises However, perhaps the best thing like about her is her kindness Whenever I have a problem, she always encourages me or gives me helpful advice I hope that our friendship will last forever.
