Why they get bored and scared when learning English? Why not we encourage the spirit of passion, not make a comfortable learning for the children? And the idea of "learning to play – play to learning" was formed Through research, look at the books and some personal experience I have thought and exchanged some experiences: "Improving the quality of English for grade students through the English Club" Hoping to help students learn effectively in English subject in primary school II Research purposes In the face of the fact that students are lazy and afraid of learning English Many teachers are still embarrassed to inspire them to learn English, so that I research with purposes such as: - Adding to the teacher some methods and forms of organizing English Clubs to excite students while learning English - Helping students become more motivated, self-confident, positive and active in improving the quality of English for grade students through the English Club III Research objects - Reality of English Learners of Grade Students at Nga My primary School - Some methods to improve the quality of learning English of students in grade at Nga My primary school IV Research Methods The group of The methodology: studying the materials learned in teaching methods - learning English, teacher's books, reference books ; the club organization models The group of The Practical methods: survey methods, planning methods, methods of practice…… B PROBLEM SOLVING I The rationale for improving the quality of English for grade through the English Club Once upon a time, history has shown and proven to us that human has known to organize community activities in groups, according to their tribes That has brought many practical effects in the local Nowadays, we also see the appearance of clubs such as Youth Club, Sports Club So that means the club form has long and effective in the life and the development of people In fact, in teaching and learning a foreign language, students will learn more effectively if they learn in a funny - relaxed learning environment and have more opportunities to communicate in the context of the real world The using of language games in foreign language teaching is one of the most effective methods that can increase the learning motivation of students, which is one of the success in learning a foreign language At the same time, they will encourage students to maintain learning and interest in learning In addition, they help teachers give out the situations in which practical language is useful and understandable to learners Learners want to join the game, they have to understand what other people are saying or writing, and they have to say or write things to describe their understanding or to present informations to others Language games in Club events will help students to develop four skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing English an effective way In conclusion, in order to organize language games that are highly effective in teaching and learning English, teachers need to change the content and the form of club activities Teachers usually organize games to Students can learn English in a funny - relaxed learning environment and cooperative manner that contributes to improve the efficiency of English teaching in primaryschools II Reality of improving English for grade through the English Club Reality -With school: Nga My primary school is a difficult school with facilities, equipments, reference books They are still limited -With parents: Many parents not really care about the subject, they think that primary English is optional subject as the previous years, they also think that their children only need to learn Vietnamese and if children not understand Vietnamese, they will not understand English So that, It is difficult to teach English at school -With teachers: For many years, teaching foreign languages is usually vegetarianism, it means that there is no teaching equipments In addition to textbooks, there are no materials that support teaching and learning Teachers donot have much time in researching methods and forms of teaching organization The time of the extra - curricular activities is limited When they donot have lots of experience, they prepare activities very difficult Teachers not have the skills to organize activities outside of class time -With students Nga My primary school is in the countryside Most of the children are rural children, the condition of their family is very difficult, so their parents just not have much time to care and look at their children Therefore, the students are not focused on learning English During English lessons they are not often confident in reading-speaking skills so children are not flexible while studying the lessons They not have the opportunity to join in a variety of learning styles to develop their English skills Studying materials such as textbooks, exercise books, reference books are not enough to serve the learning of the children Survey results at the beginning of 2017-2018 At the beginning of the 2017 - 2018 school year, I surveyed the quality of class 4A (the experimental class), class 4B (the control class) The results are: Class Total 4A 4B 22 24 Finished well Finish Unfinished Amount percentage Amount percentage Amoun percentage (%) (%) t (%) 10 45,5% 31,8% 22,7% 13 54,2% 29,2% 16.6% Besides I submited the poll whether students would like to join the club or not The results are: Class Total Like so much Dislike Note Amount percentage Amount percentage (%) (%) 4A 22 36,4% 14 63,6% 4B 24 12 50% 12 50% As a result, most students have little opportunity to learn and improve their English There is limited ability to communicate because there is no playground for the children to join Although the writing test is relatively good, the students are still confused in specific situations and simple sentences such as greetings, questions about themselves, school, teachers, friends From the above situation, I think to find out why the quality of English is not achieved as other subjects To find the right solution for improving the quality for students in the grade Reason The quality of English grade is not high and the student preference survey is low due to the following reasons: - Facilities for teaching and learning English is still lacking - Teachers have not yet caught the attention of the students, as well as have not known how to organize extra activities in the content of the subject so that they have the opportunity to participate Speaking skills are limited Most of them are shy and lack confidence in communication - Knowledge of some parents about the importance of the subject does not correct The coordination between the school, parents and unions is not timely - Have not done well the incentive for gifted children in English From the realitys and the reasons mentioned above, I have set goals and orientations for my work From the beginning of the school year, I have advised the school's management to develop a program and plan to organize the English Club for Grade students with the following specific solutions: III Solutions have been used to solve the problem of experience idea Making plans set up English Club 1.1 The survey captures the needs of students' aspirations Initially to form the English Club in the school, the first thing is to have the direction, the support of the management of the school with the determination of the English teacher So in order to know the needs and aspirations of students attending the English Club: I myself have concentrated all grade students to join games, sing songs in English and work in group Introduce them use English anytime and anywhere The fun of the game and the song can attract the attention of the children participating in the Club Develop a survey form based on purpose and expected content of the club activities according to certain topic content: The questionnaire of the English quality is structured in the form of multiple-choice questions , answers, clear, short and easy to understand Submit the registration form to the club with the agreement of the student , sparents to register Outline some specific rules for joining the Club 1.2 Establishment of the board of directors and members of the club + Board of the Club includes: Head of the Club: As a teacher of English 4-5, in charge of general 4-5 General direction and management, collaborating with the vice president to develop the program of activities, suggest ideas, consult the school management Regularly monitor the situation or the reality of the students in the school about the subject of English, from which to build specific programs, with close themes, sticking to their curriculum Club Vice President: English Teachers of grade 1,2,3 with other members of the board develop a club activity plan, assign and help team leaders work in teams Club members: The art teacher is a music teacher, this teacher is responsible for dancing -
