Part I. INTRODUCTION1. Motivation for the study:Up to now, English which is used very popular in Vietnam is an important international language. English is one of the important subjects at High School. It has been used for Final Examinations to evaluate students’ level of knowledge. Therefore, whether students are proficient at English or not is very important to them. Being proficient at English means student is good at both received skills - reading and listening, and productive skills - speaking and writing. These four skills are integrated in a lesson to improve all these skills for the students, because one certain skill can be used to improve the others. But it is very hard for people to begin learning English. Therefore, it is necessary to have teaching and learning English methods and techniques. To make students interested is very important for teachers, especially English teachers. How must we do that? This is the responsibility of all of the teachers! Warm – up activities are a way in which we can take interest, but how do English teachers in high schools apply these activities? There are many ways to make good warm – up activities at high schools. This is a reason why I choose “warm – up activities in teaching and learning English at grade 10A5 in Cai Be high school” to research. According to this research, I myself will get experiences to improve skills and teaching methods.
