and then, recognizing if using games as supplementary activities increase students’ motivation in studying grammar For the accomplishments of these purposes, fifteen students in class 789A3 at Wellspring International Bilingual School in Long Bien District, Hanoi, Vietnam were involved in the study The present study tends to use qualitative method with the support of quantitative method Then, the data instruments include pre-test, post-test and the practitioner’s diaries By comparing the results of the pre-test and the post-test, the students’ increasing motivation in grammar studying could be revealed through the improvement of the students’ grammar retention Also, from the teacher’s diaries, the enhancement of the students’ motivation in grammar studying could be recognized through their involvement and participation in learning activities iii LIST OF FIGURES AND TABLES FIGURES PAGE Figure 1: Action Research cyclye (Sagor: 1992) 21 Figure 2: Data collection procedure 24 Figure 3: The students’ results of the pre-test 28 Figure 4: The students’ results of the post-test 30 Figure 5: The students’ results in the pre-test and the post-test 32 Figure 6: The students’ participant in learning activities in class 34 TABLES PAGE Table 1: Schedule of Grammar Teaching for class 789A3 19 iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Declaration i Acknowledgement ii Abstract iii Table of contents iv List of figures vii INTRODUCTION .1 Rationale for the study Aims of the study 3 Research questions Scope of the study Practical significance of the study Methods of the study 6.1 Data collection methods 6.2 Data analysis Design of the study DEVELOPMENT .6 CHAPTER 1: LITERATURE REVIEW 1.1 Previous studies related to language teaching and learning .6 1.1.1 Studies related to using games in language teaching and learning 1.1.2 Studies related to using games in teaching grammar v 1.2 The importance of grammar .10 1.3 Which games should be used? 11 1.4 When should games be used 11 1.5 The importance of students’ motivation 13 CHAPTER 2: METHODOLOGY 16 2.1 The background of the study 16 2.1.1 The study setting 16 2.1.2 Participants 17 2.1.3 Materials 17 2.2 Hypotheses 18 2.3 Implementation of the Action Research 19 2.4 Data collection instrument 21 2.4.1 Pre-test and Post-test 21 2.4.2 Diaries .21 2.5 Data collection procedure 22 Chapter 3: FINDINGS AND DISCUSSION 23 3.1 Data analysis preocedures 23 3.2 Research question 24 3.2.1 Results from the pre-test 25 3.2.2 Results from the post-test 26 3.2.3 Comparison between results from the pre-test and the post-test 28 3.3 Research question 29 3.4 Summarization 32 vi 3.4.1 Effectiveness of grammar games 32 3.4.1.1 Effectiveness of grammar games in developing students’ motivation 32 3.4.1.2 Effectiveness of grammar games in developing the ability of students’ understanding of the lesson 33 3.4.2 Difficulties when using grammar games in class 34 3.4.2.1 For the teacher 34 3.4.2.2 For students 35 PART III: CONCLUSION 36 Recapitulation .36 Limitations of the study 37 Suggestions for further study 38 REFERENCES viii APPENDICES xii Appendix 1: Pre-test xii Appendix 2: Post-test xvii vii INTRODUCTION Rationale: In studying languages in general and studying English in particular, it can be said that grammar is seemed to be difficult and boring for students It is thought by students that English grammar contains complex, difficult, and different rules Besides, traditionally, many teachers approach grammar teaching very seriously, making the lesson dull and uninteresting Therefore, students usually feel tired and boring in grammar lessons and then they are not motivated to study However, as one of language components, grammar is very necessary and nobody can refuse the importance of learning this skill According to William Somerset Maugham (The Summing Up, 1938), “It is necessary to know grammar, and it is better to write grammatically than not, but it is well to remember that grammar is common speech formulated.” “Grammar is the structural foundation of our ability to express ourselves The more we are aware of how it works, the more we can monitor the meaning and effectiveness of the way we and others use language It can help foster precision, detect ambiguity, and exploit the richness of expression available in English.” Moreover, as stated by McKay (1987), in order to communicate effectively in English, students need to have a good foundation in grammar Once again, Ur (1988) states that a person who knows grammar is one who can express himself or herself in what would be considered as acceptable language forms In brief, although grammar plays an important part in English studying, students not have motivation in learning this skill What are the solutions to solve with the stated matter above? Perhaps, teachers need to apply variable teaching methods to stimulate students to study so that they can understand and master grammar as well as feel motivated when studying lessons There are many ways that help students be interested in and follow the lessons In the writer’s position, that games through lessons is one of the most appropriate approaches This approach can help students find studying English grammar more easily Thus, in the present study, the writer has an intention of looked forward to grammar lectures Their belief was shown by their increasing involvement and participation in class While there were only four students enjoying the lessons in the beginning of the treatment (Week 2), the number of the students taking part in learning activities was gradually increased; and from Week 11 to the end of the treatment process, all of the students in the class joined in activities happily and enthusiastically In conclusion, from the positive findings of the study and the experience that the teacher gained during the process of conducting the treatment, she achieved the initial aims stated in the beginning She helped her learners enhance their motivation in grammar studying and assisted them to balance grammar studying with communicative skills studying After that, she has made some recommendations with other teachers and other researchers who are also interested in applying games in teaching language skills Limitations of the study: There must be some limitations recognized in this action research due to the time constraints and the researcher’s limited ability and experience Firstly, only the students of one class (fifteen students) and the teacher as well as the researcher teaches took part in the study; therefore, the results are not easily generalized Personally, she is aware that this action research tends to be institutional because of the small number of participants joining in the study She just only wished to help her students and improve her teaching career However, this limited sample size was compensated for the good attitudes and positive contribution of all students during the treatment; and the researcher also felt easy and satisfied with controlling the class involved Furthermore, the deficiency of a control group is really a big weakness in this research If the researcher could have organized a control group, the results got from the tests would have been more persuasive 37 In brief, in spite of the shortcomings mentioned above, the effort of the practitioner and the students as well as careful work in data collection and data analysis could ensure the reliability and validity of the research Suggestions for further studies: Other researchers who have the same interest with the researcher of this action research may find the following recommendations useful for their future works First of all, due to the small number of students joined in the study, the findings cannot be easily generalized Therefore, the researcher and other scholars can carry out further studies with a larger number of students In addition, scholars can focus on their future studies in other language skills such as Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing Moreover, researchers can organize a control group in his/ her study Having a control group will make the results got from the tests more persuasive and reliable And then, the scholar also can feel more relaxing and easy to compare the results and the data collected 38 REFERENCES Celce-Murcia, M., & McIntosh, L (Eds.)
