10 Subjects In the research, I only focus on the 10 grade students who are going to learn unit Althoug the passage is a short of a letter, it contains some interseting and useful some information about places such as Thien Mu pagoda, Thay pagoda, Dalat, Ha Long bay- historical and tourism places I will provide students with some information related to these places Which makes the interested in lesson, showing some handout and organize game to make the lesson exciting Method To make my method of teaching effective, I have used some techniques below - Firstly, I always get advices from my colleaguess through co-working - Secondly, I search some pictures ,images, related to the topic of the lesson in the Internet + pictures of some historical places: Thien Mu pagoda, Ha Long bay, Dalat, Thay pagoda, One pillar pagoda - Thirdly, I teach the lesson through real situations such as showing pictures, real objects and I also learn how use powerpoint presentation, projecters etc - Lastly, in the class, I aks students to work in groups in pair and guide them to play some games to motivate their interest PART II CONTENT Theoretical Background In teaching reading skills, teacher is considered to be successful when he or she helps student be able to practice the words, all the tasks in the texbook correctly Teaching units related to many other subjects is a hard work because it reqiures teacher to have a lot of many general knowledge and spend much time on the lesson However, unit part A reading is an interesting lesson and not quite difficult Therefore, I would like to use some new methods of teaching to help my students understands this passage effectively Realities before applying the research Some years ago, I applied these following steps to teach students: Before reading - Warm up Present new words Practice with new words While reading Students read and some tasks in the textbook and teacher corrects the answers After reading Teacher or students summarize the main points of the lesson Homework After spending 45 minutes teaching, I find that students can undersand the lesson passively and they quickly foreget all Moreover, the atmosphere of class is so boring and students are tired of learning this skills again and again Solutions To make the lesson more interesting, I have applied the method of teaching below: Warm up: Matching ( checking students’ knowledge about interdisciplinay history, geography, cultural knowledge) Teacher shows four pictures on screen and asks students to look at these pictures and match them with suitable names * Students give the answer and teacher corrects them + picture 1: Thien Mu pagoda + picture 2: Ha Long bay + picture 3: One pillar pagoda + picture 4: Da Lat Teacher asks students question: What you know about these places? Students : They are historical and tourism places Teacher presents some more information about these places Teacher introduces some new word by showing pictures or objects Lotus -Students’ answer: hoa sen Picturesque Students’ answer: đẹp tranh Pine forest Students’ answer: rừng thông Waterfall Students’ answer: thác nước Teacher leads in the new lesson: Today we are going to take part in an excursion with Minh and Lan’ classmates to visit a pagoda in our country Teacher continues presents some new words in the passage Cave /keiv/ (n): hang động rock: đá (Students’ answer) - rock formation: hình thành đá Pagoda :chùa (Students’ answer) Excursion: chuyến tham quan (Students’ answer) - Campfire: lửa trại (Students’ answer) Teacher practices these words and asks students to repeat 2.Practice T asks students to look at screen and listen carrefuly Dear Minh, 10 I’m writing to tell you a piece of news The first term is coming to an end soon and my school is going to have some days off On this occasion, my class is visiting some caves near Hanoi as we have recently studied rock formations Besides, many of us have never been inside a cave, so I suppose the trip will be very interesting At first, we wanted to travel to Thay Pagoda because it is only 20 kilometers away, and we could go on a day excursion However, only today have we learnt that the caves near Thay Pagoda are closed until after Tet So we are visiting the ones near Huong Pagoda instead A night campfire on a two-day trip will be a great event in our schooldays! To make the trip cheap, we are bringing our own food and sharing buses with some other classes It is much warmer now I believe we’re going to enjoy good weather with lots of sunshine The only problem I seem to have is getting my parents’ permission They may not want to let me stay the night away from home I’ll try to persuade them That’s all for now Give my love to your parents and sister Yours, Lan After listening to tape of the passage, teacher asks students to work in pair and the task in the textbook and then teacher checks the correct answers Task 1 Lan wrote the letter to A inform Minh of her days off B complain about her parents C tell Minh about the plan for her class trip D talk about what she and her classmates will at Huong Pagoda 2.The students decided to go on an excursion because they wanted to A understand their geography lessons better B relax after work C have a campfire D A and B 3.The students have changed their destination as _Thay Pagoda A it is impossible to visit the caves near B it costs them a lot to visit C they prefer Huong Pagoda to D many of them have been to Teacher shows a picture of Thay Pagoda, tells students about its location and figures (checking students knwledge about history, geography and culture) Thay pagoda is also called Thien Phuc Tu, it is located in Sai Son village, Quoc Oai Destrist, Ha Tay province It was buit more than 1000 years ago in Ly dynastry It has a shape of triangal Every year, this pagoda attracts a lot of visitors around the world because of its quietness and beauty 11 Teacher : Now we are going to move to tasks Task 2: Answer the questions When are Lan and her classmates going on a trip? Why are they visiting some caves? How far is Thay Pagoda from their school? What are the students’ plans for their trip to Huong Pagoda? What is Lan anxious about? Why? To make the lesson more dynamic and motivate students interest, I will organize a game: Lucky number, introduces the rules of game, devides class into two groups and ask students to take part in the game *The rules* Choose the number you like “There are numbers in which each number has a different thing The number which has a  “Lucky number” word will give you 50 points without answering the question  “Question” word you will have to answer the question if you give the right answer to the question, you can get different marks If the team can’t answer the question or gives incorrect answer , They will lose their turn and move to the other The team getting the highest marks will be the winner.” 12 After the game ends, teacher gives the correct answers and declares the winer When are Lan and her classmates going on a trip? - When they have some days-off after the first term Why are they visiting some caves? - Because they have recently studied rock formation and many of them have never been inside a cave How far is Thay Pagoda from their school? - It is only over 20 kilometres What are the students’ plans for their trip to Huong Pagoda? - They are going to make a two-day trip and have a night campfire They are bringing their own food and sharing buses with some other classes to make the trip cheap What is Lan anxious about? Why? - She’s anxious about her parents’ permission They may not want to let her stay at night away from home 3.Further practice ( checking students’ general knowledge) Teacher shows a picture of a famous historical place in Thanh Hoa province and asks students to guess its name and give some information about that place Students will get: Citidal of Ho dynastry in Vinh Loc destrist, Thanh Hoa province 13 Teacher asks: What you know about it? Students may say it was built in Ho dynastry, it is very beautiful, it has four gates: East gate, West gate, South gate and North gate Teacher adds The 14th century Ho Dynasty citadel, built according to the feng shui principles, testifies to the flowering of neo-Confucianism in late 14th century Viet Nam and its spread to other parts of east Asia According to these principles it was sited in a landscape of great scenic beauty on an axis joining the Truong Son and Dong Son mountains in a plain between the Ma and Buoi rivers The citadel represents an outstanding example of a new style of South-East Asian imperial city 4.Homework Teacher Asks students - to learn by heart the new words - to write a passage (100-120 words) about their favorite historical place in Vietnam - to prepare for part B- Speaking Students: Write the requests on notebooks Effectiveness of the research To consolidate the lesson I had students to a 15 minutes test with ten multiple choice questions on the worksheets After 15 minutes I collected the papers, gave marks and feedback From the results of applying my new solution in teaching, I realize that most students understand and well Besides, most of them are interested in learning from manipulaing interdisciplinary subjects which provides the students with a wide range of information related to the lesson Below is the statistics I have collected from the school year 2018-2019 that my experiences have been done in two classes 10C3 and 10C6 at Thach Thanh High School Class Number Contents Before appying/ After applying/ of Rate (%) Rate (%) students 10C1 40 Excited 15 37, 5% 30 75% Unexcited 25 62,7% 10 25% 10C6 42 Excited 15 35,07% 32 76,2% Unexcited 27 64,93% 10 23,8% PART III CONCLUSION General conclusion In a lesson of teaching reading skill, the teacher not only helps students understand the meaning of the passage but also manipulate plexibly techniques which are agreeable with the instant unit to motivate students’s interest in learning and create activities to make them practise better However, English is by far different from Vietnamese because it is too difficult to learn and remember Reading in Vietnamese is much easier as students not get difficulty in understanding the passage Moreover, many students have a 14 limitation of words, some are lazy in practising at home or preparing the lesson before going to school that prevent them from having good results Reading, writing and listening such a difficult lesson like unit in Engish 10 requires students both having numerous words and phrases but also understanding the culture of religion And if they pay much attention to explain correlative information, the content of the lesson will not be recoiled What is more, if they just cover on the content, there is little time for explaination Anyway, I have just presented my lesson plan from which I both teach my students knowledge and manipulate disciplinary knowledge Recommendation * For my office and colleagues I would like to offer my office to invest more refererence books, hold English clubs so that students have chances to practise and exchange knowledge more often I also take this hope that my colleagues will always cooperate and help me in the process of teaching English at school * For Department of Education and Training I am looking for being paid attention to our teaching in a mountainous school as mine that we feel interested in our career Being a young teacher, I know my research could be limited I would like to receive good comments from colleagues and sponsors so that my given solutions become more perfect and effective Sincerely thank!
