Reason for choosing the topic: In the moment of the future of the land of the current land sources that you will need it. Do not raise the entire education of the education, training the creativity for the quality of, sense, skills, applications and highlighting of educational education. The new learning to learn the method to work in the active activity of the student to the tasking, orbit of each of the field and each of a teacher. Therefore, the renovation of secondary school textbooks as well as the renovation of teaching methods requires the teacher to know how to integrate into the lecture content related to culture, sports, tourism, learn about tangible and intangible cultural values, festivals, relics, natural heritage related to the lecture, the teachers must have attractive teaching methods and guidelines to encourage the students' diligence, activeness, initiative, creativity and sense of development, contributing to the students' self-learning ability, encouraging their proposals, innovations and teachers' performance to teach and learn more effectively. With that in mind, English in the period of integration and development, the boom period with information technology plays an equally important role. Learning English is not just about learning, it is like a piece of jewelry, which is indispensable in everyday life, learning and work. We find that, in the new Secondary English program, in addition to providing vocabulary, grammatical structures, the authors of the book have incorporated many of these related to the knowledge of the commune. They make the lessons more realistic, helping them to learn a lot of good knowledge, abundance and usefulness of mankind. This leads to asking the English teacher not only to constantly research, create and innovate methods but also to constantly improve and update their social knowledge. But this is not all teachers know and it has caused many difficulties for teachers when the lecture content is related to social knowledge. Because, in order to successfully complete one lesson, the teacher is required to have not only the technical ability but also the teacher's knowledge in the subject. his lecture. In English, the teacher must have knowledge of the country, such as the United Kingdom and the United States and other countries around the world in terms of customs, custom, festivals ... On the other hand, students who are not familiar with all the social knowledge, especially students in remote areas and students with difficult conditions and less understanding get information on TV or on the Internet. In addition, the English pilot program has been expanded and taught in many rural schools. Social knowledge in many articles has been mentioned. While most rural students do not know and write in Vietnamese, they do not know how to write and how to write in English. So students almost all depend on the teacher. This is why teachers need to grasp and deepen the issues related to social knowledge in each lesson so that students can easily understand and practice. But that's not all teachers can do. 1 Especially in the pilot grade 6 English book that follows the program of the ten - year elementary school. Students, even though they have been studying for three years in elementary school, are barely acquainted. Some children do not grasp anything. That's why in 6th grade all the knowledge is almost new to them. Mean while the content in some articles refer more to the historical relics, wonders in the world. Teachers who have this social knowledge to introduce, tell stories will attract the attention of students, attract the interest of students in the lesson. Through these lessons, they have just discovered the new and applied their knowledge to the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Thus, over a number of years of teaching, through my own experience I have researched, consulted the materials to make the lessons contain content of social knowledge (usually long articles) attractive and Enthusiastic teachers, knowledgeable teachers make the lecture light, easy for children. In this article, I would like to introduce the topic "Content and methods of teaching some lessons related to social knowledge in English pilot class 6" to help the teachers, you colleagues have a useful reference to teaching their subject. 1.2. Research purposes: For a successful lesson, ask the teacher and the student to work together, try to combine the new teaching method, so that the new lesson becomes interesting and attractive to the children. In this article, I would like to give some social knowledge related to the lessons in the English program, helping the teacher understand the issues that need to be taught thoroughly, carefully, from which to guide and help. They have a great deal of preparation, thinking about the topic, the topic they are going to study, so that they do not feel too difficult with the content of their lesson. In addition, I would like to offer some methods of teaching social-related topics in the English program 6, for co-workers to refer and apply to their lessons, to help teach each of them. We are richer, more attractive, more efficient, catch up with the development of society. 1.3. Research subjects: The subject is applied to junior high school students and teachers in English subjects at all levels. Specifically, students of ethnic minority secondary school boarding in Cam Thuy district. 1.4. Research Methods: - Method of summation through work experience and teaching. - Study the content of social sciences related lessons in the English program 6. - Find out relevant information in teacher books, in books and on the Internet. - Investigation, comparison, analysis and synthesis. - Tape, disc, pictures and other visual aids. - Study tables and from social practice. 2 2. EXPERIENCE CONTENT: 2.1. Theoretical foundation of the experience: With the requirements of current method innovation, good teaching is not only the work of individual teachers, but also the activities of the teacher collective, the participation of families and unions. The pedagogical process, is to create a friendly environment, open to students. Fine is not only teaching through books, but also through practice, not only knowledge but also do, practice life skills, learn the history and culture. Good teaching, good learning is not only teachers who teach, but themselves, through active learning activities, collective activities, social activities that help each other grow up, self-training. In order to achieve the above goals, teachers and students should prepare what is before the lesson. 2.2. Situation of the problem before applying the initiative: In the present time, the period of information technology development such as storms is easier for our teachers to update information through books, television, radio, and especially is through the Internet, where we can learn, explore the endless source of knowledge of mankind. That does not mean that anyone can do, from the fact that I realize: a. For teachers: We all know that teaching is both scientific and artistic. It always requires the creativity of the teacher in the process of teaching. However, there can be no creativity without adequate preparation. Therefore, preparation for class is not only necessary but also a must for not only the new teacher. It is also a great experience for teachers. In order to have a successful lecture, the teacher must have a deep understanding of the problem he is transmitting. Sometimes the instructions in the teacher's book are not enough, asking teachers to find out more, in fact, because the working conditions of each school, each region and individual teachers not everyone is easy to find. understand the information. As a result, the teachers understand the problem they are transmitting in an insecure way, embarrassing when introducing the content of the lesson, thus making the lesson become rigid, bored, lively, students not interested in learning. In some cases the student raises a question about social knowledge that is relevant to the content of the unit, but the teacher does not answer, which is not explained by the frustration of the student. b. For students: English is still a difficult subject for children, asking them to learn about structures, vocabulary, how to use them. In addition, they need to have social knowledge related to the content of the lesson, but in fact, there are some articles, although teachers have introduced in Vietnamese but they still do not understand it is still. What ? In addition to the general difficulties of the age 3 group, most of them are children of ethnic minorities (99%), remote areas, far to study and stay boarding school. Thus knowledge of social knowledge is limited only through lectures in class as well as knowledge through the lessons, but the reality for children to explore and understand the conditions as well. The situation they can not do. For example: When it comes to the natural wonders of the world, the customs of the New Year's Day in a country in the world and some regions as well as some ethnic groups in the country or comparative levels talk about the tops. mountains, the tallest tower in the world ... Vietnamese children still do not understand how can support their English lessons effectively. 2.3. Solutions used to solve the problem: From the above situation, teaching and learning English in junior high school especially for mountainous districts and schools with difficult material conditions is really difficult. At the same time, awareness of the importance of subject matter is limited. Therefore, the sense of self-discipline in the subject is not high. So how do students gain more knowledge and understanding of social knowledge to apply in daily life through the contents of lessons in class, especially pupils are ethnic minorities, The distance is not easy for the teacher. In the present time, the period of information technology development such as storms has made it easier for our teachers to update information through books, television, radio and especially via the Internet, where we can learn, explore the endless knowledge of humanity. At the same time as the need for a new exchange of methods, good teaching is not only the work of individual teachers, but also the work of teachers, the involvement of the family , the team to the pedagogical process, is to create a friendly environment, open to students. Good teaching is not only teaching through books, but also through practice, not only knowledge but also do, practice life skills, learn the history, culture. Good teaching is not only teaching through books, but also through practice, not only understanding but also doing, practicing river skills, learning the historical and cultural relics. Good teaching, good learning is not only teachers who teach, but themselves, through active learning activities, collective activities, social activities that help each other grow up, self-training. To achieve these objectives, what are the requirements for teachers and students to prepare for the lesson? From the above I have researched and implemented the subject "Content and methods of teaching some lessons related to social knowledge in English pilot class 6". a. Prepare teachers and students for lessons that contain content related to social knowledge: For these lessons to be effective, ask the teacher to be prepared for issues that are relevant to the content of the unit and to have students explore the issues in advance. . But if we go to the next lesson and ask them to learn, it will not be timely, because at the beginning of the school year, I read and understood the 4 content of the lessons related to social knowledge and division. group, the group for the children learn, take points as a large assignment of the group. This is just the way to build the collective children, as well as create conditions for them to find out in advance the content of the lesson freely, voluntarily. Depending on the student and the conditions of each school, teachers can teach students topics related to the lesson by week, by month or by period. b. Some relevant social sciences in the 6th grade English program: * In A closer look 2 of Unit 5: "Natural wonders of the world" we learn about the highest mountain, the longest river, the hottest desert, the highest waterfall in the world and the largest lake, the sea the longest in Vietnam.

It is one of the hundred largest freshwater lakes in the world and is located in the Ba Be National Park, which is recognized as a national tourist site in Vietnam. The lake was formed over 200 million years ago. By the end of the Cambrian continental Southeast Asia, a huge body of water with a surface area of approximately 5 million square meters and a thickness of over 30 Ba Be Lake meters was built up on the limestone mountains, creating the Ba Be Lake. The three tributaries of the lake are known as Pe Lam, Pe Lu and Pe Leng. The largest value of Ba Be is the unique geological landscape, outstanding geomorphological value and tremendous value. biological type. This is the largest natural freshwater lake in Vietnam. In 1995, Ba Be Lake was recognized by the World Hook Conference, held in the United States, as one of 20 special freshwater lakes of the world to be protected. In late 2004, Ba Be National Park was recognized as an ASEAN Heritage Garden. 5 Niagara Falls (French: les Chutes du Niagara) on the Niagara River in North America, located on the border of the United States and Canada . Niagara Falls consists of three distinct waterfalls: the Horseshoe Falls (sometimes referred to as Canada Falls), the American Falls and a smaller waterfall near Bridal Veil. Although the falls are not high but the Niagara Falls is very wide. With over 168,000 m³ of water falling every minute at the most, and an average of nearly 110,000 m³ per minute, this is the strongest waterfall in North America. Niagara Falls Tra Co beach is considered one of the most beautiful beaches in the north North of Vietnam stretching to 17 km from the tip of the north to the nose Ngoc in the south. With a long coastline, Tra Co Beach is one of the longest beaches in Vietnam. Due to the distance from the cities, industrial parks and ports, the weather is cool, the sea scent, the quiet space and still wild. Tra Co beach The Amazon River (Spanish: Rio Amazonas) is a river in South America. The Amazon is one of the world's longest rivers and is the largest river in the world. The Amazon River accounts for about 20% of the total freshwater supply to the oceans. The river's largest expanse is in the dry season about 11 km (6.8 miles). In the rainy season, the widest part of the river can be up to 40 km (24.8 miles) and the river mouth area can be as large as 325 km (202 miles). The Amazon River Because of the width of the river, it is also called the river. 6 Sahara (meaning large desert) is the largest desert in the world, the third largest desert on Earth (after Antarctica and the Arctic), covering an area of more than 9,000,000 km², approximately the size of The United States and China. Sahara in northern Africa and up to 2.5 million years old. Sahara * Next to the skills1 of Unit 5: When it comes to Ha Long Bay, the teacher needs to know which province it is, how many islands and caves there are. What are some of the main islands called? Where can we enjoy specialty foods and see what traditional dances there are, what activities can be involved? Or to Hue is known as a city of Vietnam. So where can we go to visit, enjoy the cuisine and the weather there? From this new guidance and explanation specific, thorough, help the children understand this reading Halong Bay is known not only as a UNESCO World Heritage Site but also one of the world's most famous natural wonders. Few people know that the Ha Long Bay Complex is comprised of two other beautiful bays, Lan Ha Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay (here the Halong Bay is now known as Ha Long Bay).

The name of the island; Cheap wooden head was formed. The French map of the area, according to the legend of the river residents that the name of the "daugo", as well as the name "Island of thorns" to "Hongai" to Hong Gai. Perhaps because of the love of the history of the Tran dynasty, people tried to merge the names of 'Wood Head', 'Hiding Wood' for the Battle of of Bach Dang in 1288, with the name of the hero Tran Hung Dao, Tran Khanh Residual. Dau Go Cave 8 Tuan Chau Island: Tuan Chau Island is located about 4 km south of Halong Bay. Tuan Chau Island is an island of about 3 km², near the shore, with villages and sparsely populated areas. Previously on the island scientists have found many archaeological sites in Ha Long culture. Since 2001, a large road has been constructed connecting the island.

Effectiveness of experience initiatives for educational activities, with self, peers and schools: In practice, after learning the lessons related to social knowledge I applied, I realized that the learning outcomes of the students were significantly improved compared to the ones that had not been applied. The results are as follows: A. Survey results at the beginning of the 2016-2017 school year (not applied) Class Excellent Class SL SL 6A 30 05 6B 30 03 % Good Average Poor SL % SL % SL % 16,7% 13 43,3% 9 30% 3 10% 10% 11 37% 11 37% 5 16% B. Survey results at the end of the second semester (after applying the subject) Class Excellent Good Average Poor Class SL SL % SL % SL % SL % 8A 30 07 23,3% 17 56,7% 6 20% 0 0% 8B 30 05 16,7% 16 53,3% 9 30% 0 0% Comparing the results of the survey at the beginning of the year and the results obtained when using these methods in the lecture, the number of pupils who have not met the requirements has decreased markedly. It can be said that if there is an understanding and preparation of teachers and students about the social knowledge involved in the lesson, the quality of their learning will be enhanced. Detail: - In one hour, English teachers provide students with an understanding of what is involved in social knowledge. - Contribute to promoting the positive of students. 19
