SKKN Initiative experience: practice writing skills in teaching English to 8th grade students

1. Introduction: 

1.1. The reason for choosing the topic 

Language is a special signaling system, which forms and develops with human society. Language exists in everyday human life as a means of communication. Through the expression of language, one can understand one another, understand each other’s moods and attitudes so as to build social relationships, to interact with each other, to make human society become into a strict abstinence.

For students to form a language for them is a very necessary work, requiring us to always focus on developing the dynamics, creativity, active students to create Identify and solve problems for children. In order to achieve this goal, the change of teaching methods in schools in the direction of attaching importance to learners is the subject of the activity, encouraging active learning activities, active and creative learners in thelearning process. 

In teaching foreign languages, the point is more true because no one can replace learners in the acquisition of foreign language and use foreign language in communication activities by their own communication capacity.

The innovation of foreign language teaching methods should agree on the following points:

– To organize the teaching process in the direction of activating the learners’ activities.

Promote and promote the active, active and creative role of students.

– Organize students to acquire knowledge by their own activities.

– Teach children self-learning and self-will.

Thus, the ultimate goal of teaching – learning a foreign language is not simply to identify phonetic, vocabulary or grammatical systems that students must know to use in order to achieve their communication goals. Specifically: verbally, in action, in writing ….

The role of writing skills in the current junior high school program is mainly to coordinate with other oral skills to enrich classroom practice as well as homework, to reinforce the . It also helps students to become familiar with the style and structure of writing and learn how to use writing activities for a simple purpose such as writing letters, writing addresses, messaging, fill in forms, forms ….

In the process of teaching and learning English, through the experience of 18 years of class I found:

Writing skills are one of the hardest skills in any skill. It requires students to have vocabulary, understand grammatical structures, ideas to outline when writing. Writing skills help students to reproduce what they have learned, to help them practice using the language efficiently and also to write the letters for the children. The writing ability promotes the creativity of the student, which reflects the results of listening, speaking, reading, grammar, vocabulary of students, showing strengths, weaknesses, and also helps teachers easily to perceive students’ mistakes than when they speak.

Writing is a very important part of teaching and learning English, but at this time, students are not good at this skill.

Derived from the requirements of the school level and actual teaching at school. I find that students are limited in using these four skills in the English language, especially in writing.

In the four skills of listening, speaking, reading, writing and writing, it is necessary to express correctness, coherence, high precision in terms of words, structure, etc. But after each article students can not synthesize the content learned form, use wrong word, confused from, wrong word type …

Therefore, I am always thinking about and researching solutions to improve the quality and effectiveness of the school. One of the solutions to improve the quality of education that I am interested in and implement is: ” INITIATIVE EXPERIENCE: PRACTICE WRITING SKILLS IN TEACHING ENGLISH TO 8TH GRADE STUDENTS IN NGA MY SECONDARY SCHOOL”

1.2 Purpose of the study

– To find out the different ways to exploit the initiative and creativity of students in the process of training skills in teaching English

 – Train and develop writing skills for students: 

 Know -> Thoughts -> Contemplation -> Writings.

 Students learn to categorize different types of writing so that they have a more accurate view of literary language.

1.3. Research subjects

As part of this initiative, I researched WRITE sections from Unit 1 to Unit 16 in English textbooks 8 and conducted with students in grade 8, Nga My secondary school.

1.4. Research Methods

– Based on the characteristics of English Secondary School

– Requirement to renovate secondary school teaching methods

– Requirements of different types of exercises: written exercises with tutorials or creative writing

– Study the curriculum carefully.

 – Refer to the teaching hours of colleagues.

 – Have students write in some other classes in the school.

1.5 The new points of experience initiative.

Through the experimental period, my colleagues found that the application of these methods into the writing lesson has made the lesson less boring, students are more active in learning, so the passionate passion With the subjects improved, students who are weak and average are more confident and interested in solving their tasks in guided writing, better students are goodat gaining their knowledge in extra activities while being fluent with guided writing activities.

2. Content of experience initiative

2.1. The rationale of the experience initiative

Since the beginning of learning English, students have been exposed to four basic language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. These are important skills of the teacher in imparting knowledge to students. Writing is a difficult skill for the learner. It requires the instructor to understand the teaching method effectively and to implement the principle of “learning with practice”.

From the point of view of “learner-centered,” teaching and learning methods have changed fundamentally. Teachers are not the only ones who hold the knowledge and impart knowledge but only the person who are instructors, facilitators, mentors, testers, etc. Students are no longer passive learners but are the center of the learning process, active in the learning process to achieve High results in learning and applying to real life.

innovation teaching method is very important. In addition to mastering language knowledge, good listening, speaking and reading skills, writing skills also play anequally important role. Teaching writing is one of the basic contents and really is a subtle combination of teaching other language skills.

make a good English writing, that is, to ensure the accuracy of the article requirements, grammar, creativity in the article is very important.

2.2. The problem state before the application of experience

2.2.1. Advantage:
