20% of students think and work positively, remaining pupils also write the lesson and listen passively, machines but they not understand the content of the lesson Such low academic performance, good pupils less, many weak pupils Moreover, classroom is very noisy because pupils not pay attention to the lesson To remedy that situation, the most effective method is that each teacher must choose their appropriate teaching methods through a process to explore, experiment and practical teaching experience of ourselves Through years of learning, reference material and experiences drawn through the actual teaching hours in class, I myself have found a suitable teaching methods, attracted most pupils participate in lessons in an active, creative and inspire them every time to language lessons so I boldly presented his practical experience before colleagues to exchange learning in order to constantly upgrade their skills with purpose is how to make students more passionate for English subject to the ultimate goal is to make pupils more passionate for English subject Here I would like to share with colleagues by studying the theme: "Some methods help pupils interested in studying English" The current situation As we all know, English is a relatively new subject and difficult for the pupils Especially for primary school pupils So the question to "how to be stimulating for pupils during school hours Language" is always a big question that all Foreign Language teachers are looking for an answer The fact that in some periods, if teachers apply teaching methods imposely, there is only 15% - 20% of students think and work positively, remaining pupils also write the lesson and listen passively, machines but they not understand the content of the lesson So Effective learning is low, good pupils less, many weak pupils Moreover, the class is very noisy because pupils not pay attention to the lesson To overcome that situation, the most effective method is that each teacher must Some methods help pupils interested in studying English choose their appropriate teaching methods through a process to explore, experiment and practical teaching experience of themselves on the base knowledge of teaching theory Through years of learning, reference material and experiences drawn through the actual teaching hours in class, I myself have found a suitable teaching methods, attracted most pupils participate lessons in an active, creative and "Making excitement for the children during learning language lessons." This approach I have adopted in the course of his teaching and obtained very positive results So I boldly presented his practical experience before colleagues to exchange learning in order to constantly improve skills with the effective studying is how to make pupils more passionate for English subject Solution and implementation Method inspire students through visual appliances According to my opinion all teaching facilities such as tapes, radio and visual media such as paintings, photographs and objects in real can inspire students in learning In which the use of utensils intuitive method inspire students the most effective in teaching Foreign Language for visual media play an important role in establishing the relationship between language and meaning, help students relate the meaning of language directly, easy, easy to inculcate without interpreters With close topics, real close to the daily life of the English textbooks from block to block 3,4,5 the teacher can introduce new words or situations through visual media such as photographs For example, when teaching (Unit – Can you swim? English 4) To introduce a new word: Skip rope  skate Some methods help pupils interested in studying English cook  swim  play table tennis  play volleyball  play the piano  play the guitar  Teachers can point to the picture and introduce: “ I can skip ” or “ I can skate” ,… Then the teacher asks pupils to look at pictures and guess their meaning This method for you interest in learning and a high concentration because of the words that teachers introduce these objects is very close and easy to guess their meaning Some methods help pupils interested in studying English b However, not always available in case things really so teachers can use pictures instead In the new English textbooks, photographs given to introducing highly available, vivid, and resemble real-life images So while teaching, teachers must not only know how to exploit and use them to the max, but also to use a flexible and innovative way This is the most gentle way of teaching, most understandable, but the results achieved are very high and very suitable for primary school pupils Besides using visual appliances to introduce new vocabulary, themes or situations of all, teachers can use them to reinforce the lesson to help the students deepen the content of this lesson and learn more popular Example: Unit 9: What are they doing? - English After finished teaching the lesson, the teacher can use to reinforce competition from new as well as reinforce the knowledge that they have learned the lesson by: - The teacher said about hanging pictures of activities are going on the board - Then the teacher asks students to fold back books, look at pictures and talk about activities going on b a Example: Picture a - Student says: They are playing badminton Picture b - Student says: They are painting masks Through practice teaching in the classroom, I found the visual aids always make lessons exciting, high efficiency and be stimulating to pupils during school hours Method of curiosity and pique curiosity of pupils For elementary school pupils ages curiosity and curiosity of the children is so high so they easily get involved in the issues that concern them Therefore, when compiling English textbook from grade and grade compiled the current policy has focused on themes close, with pupils realistic, appropriate to the level and age psychology , needs, interests and capital of their lives The method of learning motivation of students As mentioned above, students only get motivated when they feel the excitement on the subject and see your progress Therefore, in addition to using the situation Some methods help pupils interested in studying English to attractive challenge, inviting students into the classroom activities, teachers also must encourage, motivate the children in school To help the children feel the progress in learning, teachers need to pay attention to teaching in one's power, should avoid making too demanding for pupils Also teachers should encourage pupils to learn under the motto test and accept mistakes during practice In fact, there are pupils who know but not dare to speak for fear of making mistakes Some others did not dare to raise their hands for fear of saying the wrong sentence other pupils laugh, the teacher criticized In my opinion this is the psychological factor that foreign language teachers need to consider to help them get the interest in learning or at least more active during school hours In the process of teaching, teachers should not be too hard on mistakes that pupils acquired (eg speech errors, typos, grammatical errors even) to avoid them psychological fear of making mistakes when practice Example: While practicing, the student said: She get up at six o’clock Or She have Maths, Music and English Instead of interrupting when to fix them, teachers can allow students to answer complete, teachers encourage or cheer the children by saying things like: "Very good", "thank you" or "not bad " Then the teacher called another student comments and fixes to fix them or teachers to avoid making them lose interest deterred or practice The method of using games in teaching foreign languages Knowing the use of games in teaching foreign languages in order to give students interested in studying for the subject So teachers need to know how to apply the game in the lesson to the students "learn to play and play to learn." However, depending on each specific post that teachers can choose games suitable for the purpose of the lesson 4.1 The game "Bingo" is used to test pupils' vocabulary test and at the same time to check the pupils’ agility and their listening skills Example When teaching part: "Numbers" (The count) of English 4, teachers prepare a sequence out of order any from to 20 Teachers ask students to draw a table consisting of squares and each square write on any particular one of the groups from to 20 Teacher reads the numbers in the sequence they were prepared Pupils listen and tick numbers that the teacher has just read Pupils who have consecutive box is marked, then shouted "Bingo" Pupils who "Bingo" your table in advance as the winner 4.2 Games: "Jumble words" is used to check the words Some methods help pupils interested in studying English Example: When finished teaching Unit – What subjects you have today?" in English To check that students have quick eyes of vocabulary and whether teachers can write some words disturbed the board - asmht - uscim - gleshin - ncisece - mivanetese and ask pupils to put into words that have meaning  Maths  Music  English  Science  Vietnamese 4.3 Game "Slap the board" Used to test vocabulary knowledge or consolidation Example: When teaching Unit - "What day is it today?" English , the teacher wrote the word about days of week on the small piece of paper attached to each table Sunda y Saturday Wednesday Tuesday Thursday Friday Monday The teacher called some pupils on the board - The teacher shouted from Vietnamese, patted pupils called in English from the above table Children who clapped and correct more quickly will be the winner 4.4.Guessing game: Example: When teach Unit 12 - "What does your father do?" English 4, teachers can integrate asked guessing game as follows: After pupils learned sample questions and answers about the occupation of the 3rd Teachers for pupils to draw on the job simulation then asked another pupils’career in which his paintings but just simulations Some methods help pupils interested in studying English 4.5 Games "Nought and crosses" Example: During the speaking - Unit (English 4) to practice how to talk about the location of objects and their teachers to play the game "noughts and crosses" (O and X) by - Draw squares on the board, each containing one word January April October March September February July December August Then divide the class into two groups: Group is noughts (o) and group is Crosses (x) Two groups in turn selected from the box and place the sample EX May is the fifth month of the year Groups set correct answers will be (o) or (x) The group with the (o) or (x) on a horizontal or diagonal row wins before then This game can be applied in the exercise answered questions In addition to games, we can apply different types of games such as Lucky numbers, wordsquare, networds, pyramid, to the more lively teaching hours and attracted the attention of students The effectiveness of initiatives After testing these methods for 4C class I find the subject really feasible Based on the results of the first semester of school year: 2017 - 2018 I found the quality of teaching has increased markedly Detail: Survey at the beginning of the school year : Total number of students 4C class 34 Good Above average Average Number Percent Number Percent number Percent 11 32,3 16 47,0 20,7 Date of Preparing: …………………………… Date of teaching: : …………………………… Some methods help pupils interested in studying English WEEK period: 13 Theme One : ME AND MY FRIEND Unit : CAN YOU SWIM ?
