INTRODUCTION
Tieng Anh 3 is the first of the three-level English coursebooks for Vietnamese
primary school pupils learning English as a foreign language (EFL). The book
follows a systematic, cyclical and theme-based syllabus, approved by the Ministry
of Education and Training in August, 2010, which takes a thorough development of
skills, but gives particular emphasis to listening and speaking at the early stage.
The whole coursebook reflects the carefully sequenced pedagogy of warm-up,
presentation, practice, application and assessment to develop language and
developmental skills through four macro themes - Me and My Friends, Me and My
School, Me and My Family, and Me and the World Around.
Twenty richly illustrated, cross-curricular and theme-based units focus on
offering pupils motivation, memorable lessons and a joyful learning experience
of English. Clear lessons follow a logical progression and include a wide range of

learning styles with activities that help pupils develop coordination, critical
thinking, pre-language skills as they learn to speak and understand English.
Singing activities, total physical response (TPR) chants, and exciting games
reinforce previously learnt vocabulary, motivate pupils and help them build
confidence in communicating in English.

UNIT COMPONENTS

Tieng Anh 3 - Student Book includes
twenty units, four reviews and an
interwoven sample assessment in
the Teacher Book.
Each unit offers pupils a sense of
security through predictable
activities which are systematically
sequenced from listening to
speaking, reading and writing.
Each unit is organized around a
familiar topic and consists of three
lessons. Each lesson provides
materials for two periods (or eighty
minutes) of class contact.

4


After the warm-up step with a song or a
game, conducted by the teacher, the
presentation part of the unit begins with
Look, listen and repeat. This part is

colourfully illustrated to set up the
situation in which English is used.
The input language is mostly presented
in speech bubbles to make the scene like
comic script that motivates and engages
pupils’ interest in their learning of
English.
Pupils look at the pictures to study the
text, listen to the teacher’s explanations
and repeat the language for the first time.
This part provides the vocabulary for
pupils to speak English using sentence
patterns. Specially chosen words are
linked up with their meanings through a
variety of appealing illustrations.This is an
interractive activity that is conducted in
pairs or groups.
Finally, the pair or group demonstration in
front of the class offers pupils the feelings
of security, achievement and confidence
in using the new language.
This part provides pupils with an
opportunity to speak English freely,
using the recently practised language in
different contexts. It also helps to reinforce
pupils’ understanding and memory.

This part is designed especially to
give extra language for pupils to practise
listening, speaking, and performing

actions (TPR). Pupils learn the rhythm
of English by clapping hands as they
chant. It is also a good way to develop
pupils’ pronunciation ability. The easyto-understand language of the chant
provides motivation for enjoyable and
age-appropriate practice activities.
Chants play a special role in introducing
new language or consolidating, recycling
and extending the contexts in which
structures and vocabulary already learnt
are used.

5


This part gradually introduces pupils
to the sounds of English through a
phonics chant that presents two sound
features at a time. Phonics provides a
useful tool for pupils to rely on when
they come across new vocabulary
in listening, speaking, reading and
spelling. Troublesome sounds to
Vietnamese pupils are carefully selected
from the material in each unit to be
focused on, and presented in a chant
for pupils to practise speaking in a
natural and motivating fun way.
This part provides the development of
listening skills. The activity is designed

to provide a reason and purpose for
listening. It is also a flexible means of
checking pupils’ comprehension. The
activity requires pupils to put a tick
in the chosen box as they listen. After
that, they trade their performance in
pairs or groups for correction. Finally, a
few individuals are selected to report
their work at the front of the class. The
activity can be reinforced by choral
repetition.
This part aims to develop reading abilities.
The reading text is often based on the
vocabulary and structures that pupils have
previously acquired to make the activity
achievable. Reading comprehension at this
level is often checked by matching pictures
to texts and vice versa or completing the
missing words in a sentence. At this level,
pupils are often required to read aloud at
the after-reading stage to reinforce their
pronunciation ability.
This part is specially developed to
provide additional material to keep pupils
motivated and inspired after the reading
activities.
Like chants, songs are natural,
spontaneous, and enjoyable ways to learn
English. Pupils like music and learning
popular rhymes can help them to develop

their awareness of English stress, rhythm
and intonation. This activity also enables
an interaction and cooperation among
individual pupils in the same class.
6


This part provides additional language
input for listening and speaking
activities. New vocabulary, e. g. plural
form of nouns, pronouns, or verbs, is
presented in already learnt sentence
patterns.
Pupils look at the pictures to study the
contextualized input language, listen
to the teacher’s explanations and then
to the recording for the first time. After
that, they listen again and repeat the
texts in the speech bubbles or each line
of the dialogue.
This part provides the practice of
additional language input. Pupils practise
speaking, using the new material to recall
and memorise vocabulary and structures
in an expanding network of meanings.
As structured, this is an interractive
activity in pairs or groups. It is followed
by a pair or group report to the class that
promotes the pupils’ feelings of security,
achievement and confidence in using

English.
The writing part follows the listening and
speaking activities in the previous sections
to reinforce the lear nt material. Writing
activity at this level of English learning is
aimed to support and consolidate oral and
aural activities. That is a reinforcement of
the understanding and spelling of familiar
vocabulary and sentence patterns. Pupils
are required to write the missing words in
structures that are previously lear nt or to
write simple answers with “yes”, “no” or a
single word, e.g. a noun, a preposition, and
a verb.
This part is specially developed to
provide additional material to keep pupils
motivated and activated after the writing
activities. Games are enjoyable and useful
tools to encourage pupils to participate in
the use of English for entertainment. They
also help to develop pupils’ social skills
such as taking turns, cooperating, listening
to others, and observing the rules of the
game. Many games can help to develop the
memory and concentration skills as well.

SKILLS AND LANGUAGE TEACHING
in Tieng Anh 3

I. Teaching Listening
In Tieng Anh 3, listening is one of the two communicative skills to receive more emphasis.
Through listening, pupils become familiar with the sounds, rhythms and intonation of
English. When listening to English, children are actively engaged in constructing meaning
and making sense of what they hear, using their knowledge and the clues provided by the
context. So it is very important to teach pupils to be aware of

the reason and purpose for which they are listening,

the content of the listening text,

the speaker’s voice.
There is a three-staged plan in teaching listening: before, while, and after listening.
•B
 efore listening aims

to motivate and engage pupils in the listening activity;

to establish a reason for listening;

to encourage pupils to predict the listening content, using a poster or situational
illustrations in the coursebook such as puppets, realia and flashcards; and

to introduce new language or vocabulary which occurs in the listening text.
•While listening aims to help pupils

say the words and or the sentences correctly;

understand spoken English; and


develop a sub-listening skills such as listening for gist or listening for details.
•After listening aims

to help pupils show their listening comprehension at the front of the class; and

to provide a follow-up spoken / written activity such as speaking, or writing down
what pupils have listened.

II. Teaching Speaking
Speaking in Tieng Anh 3 is of two forms: spoken interaction and spoken production.
The first refers to the ability to ask and answer questions and handle exchanges with
others. The second refers to pupils’ ability to produce language appropriately and
correctly. Speaking in Tieng Anh 3 includes:
•P
 ronunciation, which is learnt through dialogues, games, rhymes and songs. Through
these forms pupils get familiar with the stress, rhythm and intonation patterns of English
in a natural way. It is crucial to provide pupils with lots of models and to build up
8


their confident acceptance of approximate pronunciation. Insistence on correct
pronunciation with young English learners is likely to bring about a counter-effect.
•R
 epetition helps pupils memorise vocabulary and 'chunks' of language. Repetition
and classroom routines build up an expanding repertoire of English that helps pupils
understand and respond to a situation as a part of communicative interaction in class.
The best strategy is to provide lots of opportunities for pupils to practise with a secure
feeling through choral repetition of action rhymes and games. It is also important
to establish some classroom routines such as greetings and saying goodbyes at

the beginning and the end of the lessons, asking for permissions, saying common
classroom expressions such as I don’t understand; Could you say it again, please? ; May
I ask you a question? or in answering a question, I don’t know; I think/guess . . .; and
Perhaps.
•S peaking activities are designed to foster active listening. Pupils learn to take turns
and respect others’ opinions when practising in pairs and or groups. It is advisable to
remember the following sequences when conducting a speaking activity.

Make clear the purpose of a speaking activity. Elicit pupils to talk about the context
of the speaking activity, using a poster or pictures from the coursebook, realia, etc.

Model the focused language in the speech bubbles several times, using a
demonstration pair and the vocabulary sets provided in the coursebook.

Have pupils repeat in chorus before pairwork and groupwork and focus on stress,
rhythm and intonation. Offer help, when necessary, to make pupils feel secure and
promote their confidence in speaking.
•A
 fter speaking includes some remedial work as well as follow-up activities in the form
of a writing or a reading task or an integrated activity.

III. Teaching Reading
•In developing reading skills in English, pupils are taught to read aloud, following
the pictures and the texts in the stories and coursebooks. This provides an implicit
opportunity for pupils to get familiar with conventions of print and text.
•T he reading text is based on familiar texts which have been orally/aurally practised,
and the use of a whole-word sign recognition as well as phonics. The use of phonics is
usually most effective when embedded in a context such as a rhyme or a chant. 
•E xplanations should be given to pupils when they do not understand the meaning
of a word. Some reading strategies such as focusing on familiar words, guessing

unfamiliar words in a logical context, and looking at cued pictures for meaning should
be taught to pupils.
•T he reading activities in Tieng Anh 3 aim to help pupils to develop sub-skills such as
skimming for gist and scanning for detail. Teaching reading, like teaching other skills,
can be staged into before, while and after reading.
•B
 efore reading prepares a motivating and interesting atmosphere. Elicit from pupils
before they are going to read a text, using a poster, puppets, the pictures from the
coursebook, realia, etc. Encourage pupils to guess what the text is about before
reading it.

•W
 hile reading helps pupils

link the pictures and the clues with the meaning of the text.

understand the main idea of the text (Reading for gist).

understand the details of the text (Reading for details).
•A
 fter reading aims to consolidate pupils’ understanding of the text and reinforce their
pronunciation through a follow-up activity either in spoken or in written form.

IV. Teaching Writing
•W
 riting in Tieng Anh 3 aims to develop pupils’ elementary writing skills in English.
Pupils are taught to coordinate hand, eye and subtle motor skills. They need to have
the effort and concentration which go into forming letters and words. Initial writing

emphasis is on supporting and reinforcing oral/aural work, particularly the spelling of
familiar vocabulary and sentence patterns.
•B
 efore writing aims to help pupils to understand why they write and provides them
with the language materials to express their ideas in English.
•W
 hile writing aims to help pupils to work independently under the teacher’s guidance
and supervision.
•A
 fter writing helps pupils to consolidate their writing skills through a follow-up activity
such as copying the text onto pupils’ notebooks or on a clean sheet of paper, focusing
on neatness, spelling and punctuation.

V. Teaching Pronunciation
•T eaching pronunciation in Tieng Anh 3 consists of teaching Phonics and Songs/
Rhymes/Chants. Phonics enables pupils to recognise the relationship between letters
or letter combinations and the sounds they make. With the knowledge of phonics,
pupils are able to improve their speaking and reading skills because they can identify
the spelling and pronunciation patterns of listening new words and decode them
quickly. Focus pupils’ attention on the letter(s) and its (their) sounds in words, and model
the new sound(s) a few times for pupils to repeat.
•In teaching Phonics/Songs/Rhymes/Chants, it is advisable that the teacher should
introduce the songs/rhymes/chants in which the new sounds are embedded; teach
new vocabulary, using flashcards, realia, pictures, etc; and mime the lines if possible;
focus the attention on the letter(s) and its/their sound(s) in words; model the new
sound(s) a few times for pupils to repeat;

play the recording a few times, having pupils repeat each line of the song/rhyme/
chant and clap the words containing the focused sounds;


organise pupils to work in pairs and groups to practise the song/rhyme/chant; and

call on some volunteers to perform the song/rhyme/chant at the front of the class
and have the rest of the class clap the rhythm of the chant.

VI. Teaching Vocabulary
•T eaching vocabulary helps pupils to understand, memorise and use the words
appropriately in their specific contexts.
10


•Y
 oung pupils learn chunks of English which combine vocabulary and grammatical
patterns in an unanalysed way. Therefore, it is crucial to give pupils plenty of time to
practise, memorise, recycle, and extend their vocabulary and grammar in meaningful
contexts.
•In learning vocabulary, pupils need to learn the form of the word (sound and spelling)
as well as its meaning and other related aspects of words such as grammatical
changes in forms and collocations.
•R
 egular recycling of vocabulary helps pupils meet the same words embedded in
different contexts and activities again and again.
•W
 hen teaching vocabulary, it is important to help pupils recognise, practise and
memorise vocabulary by responding to a puppet/real object or a flashcard or
associating words, meanings and pictures/real objects/facts. These can be done by

playing the recording for pupils to listen and repeat the word;

explaining its meaning, using definitions, pictures, flashcards, realia and translation

if necessary; and

getting pupils to practise, using the word with a range of spoken or written
activities which can be done individually or in pairs.

VII. Teaching Grammar
•T eaching grammar helps pupils to use correctly grammatical patterns to express their
ideas in specific contexts.
•Y
 oung learners of English begin their English grammar learning based on formulaic
sequences and unanalysed chunks of language met in the context of dialogues,
readings, chants, rhymes, stories, songs and games. Through activities, pupils develop
a sense of achievement and gradually transfer chunks to new contexts and use them
creatively.
•O
 ne way to enable pupils’ language awareness is drawing their attention to specific
language patterns or features of grammatical forms and, if necessary, comparing
or contrasting these with other patterns and forms in Vietnamese. The appropriate
techniques to be used to teach pupils are:

focusing pupils’ attention on the new grammatical pattern in the texts;

playing the recording for pupils to listen and follow in their books, and asking
them some questions to check their comprehension;

playing the recording again for pupils to listen a second time;

providing models for pupils to practise the new grammatical item in a spoken or
written activity, using the cued pictures or prompts in their books; and


reinforcing the new grammatical item with a variety of spoken and written
activities.

VIII. Optional Activities
At the early stage, encourage pupils to make their guess of the meaning of the word(s)
or to ask a classmate. Spelling the word(s) would be fun and motivating. The
followings are some suggested techniques:
1. Writing. Give a list of focused words which you want pupils to spell correctly. Select
some pupils to read the words aloud. Individually, pupils look at each word, say it,
then write it down into their notebooks. Pupils trade their work in pairs or groups for
correction.
2. Spelling. Focused words are written on the board. Assign one word to each
pupil to copy it onto a small piece of paper. Collect the pieces of paper, mix them up
and put them into a box. Have two teams take turns to pick out a word and say it to
their opposing team member. This pupil must spell it correctly to score a point.
3. Dictation. Pupils work in pairs or in groups, taking turns to dictate the focused
words to each other. Then they check each other’s spelling.
4. Word cards. Prepare word cards for the focused words you wish to check. Have two
teams of four pupils to be involved in the activity. Pupils from each team take turns
to come to the front of the class, picking a card. They act out the word on the card for
their team, who have to guess the word, up to five tries, to score a point.
5. Bingo. Draw a word grid on the board and ask pupils to copy it. Pupils tell you the
words they have studied in their lessons. List them on the board. Pupils choose the
words from the list to copy them into their grid. While they are doing this, copy each
word onto a piece of paper, put the pieces of paper into the bag, and mix them up.
Select pupils to pick out a piece of paper and to call out the word. Pupils with that
word in their grid put a cross on it. Continue the game until there is a pupil who has

the words on a straight line crossed out.
6. Total Physical Response (TPR). TPR is used throughout the course to associate the
language with the movement and actions to provide pupils with a strong support for
language comprehension. It provides a physical and fun context for the successful
understanding of key language, without the need to produce accurate English at an
early stage of learning. The procedure is as follows:
Presentation
•P
 lay the recording or say the text. Do the actions associated with the text.
•Repeat the step.
•Play the recording again without actions.
Review
•Play the recording or say the text. Do the actions associated with the text.
•Repeat the step.
•A
 sk pupils to share ideas with a group to see how much of the text they can
remember.
•Say the text again without actions.
12


7. Chants, Rhymes and Songs. There is a link between the theme or topic and the
content of the chants, rhymes or songs. In terms of teaching procedure, the following
alternatives should be considered instead of merely singing.
•Use puppets or finger puppets to react the rhyme or song with pupils.
•Have pupils copy the text and draw a picture for it.
•Groups of children create a tune for a rhyme, and sing it.
•Pupils sing or chant as a round.
8. Pairwork/Groupwork. Pupils should be given clear and repeated instructions about
what they are expected to do and say. The followings are some suggested teaching steps.

•Whole class. Elicit/Teach/Model then write the focused language (words/phrases/
questions/answers) that pupils need on the board.
•M
 odel. Perform the focused materials yourself or have a demonstration pair at the front
of the class. Help and guide them to interact in a reasonably structured manner. This will
enable the freer stage of independent class pairwork/groupwork that will follow.
•Repeat the step with a new demonstration pair.
•Pupils practise in pairs or groups. Monitor the activity and offer help if necessary.
•Ask a confident pair or some volunteers to perform the task for the rest of the class.
•W
 hole class. At the end of the activity, there should be some consolidation or
reinforcement in written forms.

Hello is also informal and friendly but more formal than Hi. It can be used with
teachers and other adults.
