IntroductionIts necessary for us to speak English, because English is an international language today. And it is used by more and more people in the world. So everyone who communicates with others freely in English is very important.But my students dont like speaking English. Its very important for us to speak English, confidence is very important, Id like to encourage my students to open mouth .so I thought the problem is worthy researching.2. Problem The problem I have in my teaching is that most of my students do not like speaking English I assign them to do after class.3. Problem analysis In my teaching, the problem identified was really a serious problem. My preliminary research confirmed that there were three main reasons that accounted for students reluctance to do the oral assignments out of class. Firstly, some students did not feel interested in practicing oral English alone after class. They thought they could not communicate without partners. Secondly, some students had some difficulties in doing oral practice, so they hoped that they could do it after class under more concrete direction of the teacher. Thirdly, most students felt overloaded because of heavier homework assignments. The Problem had been troubling me for a long time and now I was determined to find a solution to the problem. In my study, I used four methods of analysis.3.1 The analytic methodThough careful analysis, I was led to a series of questions: For instance, I found a majority of my students do not like doing this assignment, and I wanted to know why it should be the case, and whether they thought it important and necessary to practice oral English or not? If they thought it important and necessary, the problem was actually caused by me, not by my students. Problem the oral work I assigned my students to do was poorly organized.3.2 Cause analysisIn this situation, I asked myself a series of questions and tried to provide some answers to them.Why did most of my students not do oral practice I assigned them to do after class? In order to know more about this issue, I designed a cause exploration procedure like this.Questions Answers² Is it because they do not like oral English？ Maybe.² Is it because the oral tasks are poorly designed? Maybe.² Is it because they are not motivated? Possibly yes.² Is it because my instructions are not clear? Maybe.² Is it because they do not like to practice oral tasks alone? Maybe.² Is it because they have lots of other things to do? Yes.² Is it because they do not think oral tasks are important and necessary? Maybe.² Is it because they have some difficulties unsolved by them? Yes.3.3 Questionnaire survey I made a pilot investigation in this respect to know more about the situation. For this purpose, I designed a research procedure like the follows. One day, I gave them two oral tasks-Recite Unit 4 and form groups voluntarily to make a new dialogue. The title was “Asking A Way”. The next day, I got the following feedback:Only seven students recited the lesson.Only one group of three students made a new dialogue.The rest did not do the oral tasks.Then I asked them two questions. One was why some students had done the oral tasks. The students responses:First, those who had made new dialogue said they enjoyed speaking English and they also liked to practice oral English with partners.Second, they thought a huge amount of written homework given by the teachers of different subjects must be handed in the next day. And all the teachers would check it carefully, while the English teacher might spend a little time checking the oral task, so they had to finish written homework first and sometimes they had no time to do the oral tasks.Third, they felt it very difficult to recite such long lessons.Fourth, they felt tired of practicing dialogues without partners, while they could not find partners. Since most of students did not do the oral practice I asked them to do after class, I designed a questionnaire (See Appendix A) to find out why it should be so. I intended to get more detailed, more exact opinions from all the students through the questionnaire. And I tried to make it as scientific and effective as possible. At first I asked four students who were of different English levels to try out the questionnaire. Then I modified some of the items. After that I gave one of my students and gave them fifteen minutes to finish it. All of them, thirty-seven students, returned their questionnaires which were left anonymous. When all these data came in, I made some statistical evaluation. The results showed that over 70% of the students thought regularly practicing oral English after school could improve their English speaking and that about 63% of them thought oral practice was very necessary of oral practice. But they might run up against difficulties that they could not overcome, so they lost their confidence and interest.3.4 Brainstorming activation When I was engaged in the problem analysis, I consulted my thesis supervisor Miss Liu Jin and often talked to my classmates about all the problems I met. They gave me a lot of advice and help so that I pondered the problem more deeply and carefully.After a lengthy problem analysis, I determined to launch a project to overcome this problem.4. Project objective My research objective is to enhance my students interest in doing oral practice after class.5 .Project hypothesis It is hypothesized that learners interest in oral practice after class is increased by better organization.6. Project rationale (1)The importance of language activities to language learners. Language is a tool that we communicate with others and express ideas. We can learn the language from the books. The tapes and the recorder, the main purpose for us is to communicate, not just for only know, read and write, to give more chance and time to practice to learn is very important.As a Denmark linguist said: learning foreign language is just like swimming in rive, learners must practice in water frequently, not just put only a few drops of water on their body, Similarly, language learners should also put themselves into varied language activities, such as listening and speaking, thus they can require lots of useful language components and have more opportunities to imitate what others to say and how to say. Of course, learners should also practice more; they can practice by themselves or with partners.( 2)The demand of new English curriculum.New English curriculum calls for English teachers must abandon some old and useless traditional teaching ideas. The center of classroom should be students not the teacher. So, in order to improve my students oral ability. I should try my best to design varied activities in class. As we all know , middle school students are so active that they are eager for learning language by taking part in all kinds activities , not just sit and listen to teachers silently all the times , they cant stand the passive receiving .while , they would like to learn the language in language activities .（3）As a teacher，to improve the students oral English is very necessary.The teachers will use their minds to think lots of useful activities for the students to learn language, Such as pinwork, act the play, group works, and speech contest and so on. It is very useful for the students to learn, Make the students speak fluently, have lots of words to say and cooperate with others well is very successful for a kind of useful teaching method. Teacher can design varied language activities to improve students oral ability, such as let students listen to tapes or radios or watch TV to imitate correct pronunciation and intonation. Asking students to chat with friends in English in their free time; Encouraging students to make daily report every day; providing some proper topics with related pictures and tips for students to talk freely and confidently; organizing students to debate on some specific issues.7. Project design I designed varied language activities (cover four weeks of teaching) to test the hypothesis. If more language activities are better designed then learners oral ability will be improved accordingly. In my project design, I make up my mind to improve my teaching ways, for example, I would leave more time for students to practice conversations with each other instead of speaking by myself, and then I would use some colorful teaching materials to interest students to concentrate on English lesson. Such as beautiful flashcards lovely pictures, Such as beautiful flashcards, lovely pictures, and so on. At last I would take into some more helpful things to help my student imitate, Such as Watching English movies and listening English songs, these activities are reported as following.Week 1 Activity 1 Seeing the doctor This activity is based as in junior English for China, Go for it, Unit2 Whats the matter? Purpose: to practice using target language in seeing the doctorInstructions: Students worked in groups. They made new dialogues by themselves after class. Then they acted out their dialogues in class.Procedure: I taught the text of Unit2 Then I provided the students a lot of related material, which I classified into cards and pictures. And I also provided some related topics and model dialogues for their reference. Next I allowed them to rehearse their dialogues for four days. At last I arranged a whole class for them to perform. When they were performing in class, three students and I gave the actors or actresses marks through discussions. Marks were given following three standards: Firstly, their pronunciations and intonation. Secondly, their mistakes in dialogues. Thirdly, their level of performances. After performance, I asked all of the students to elect excellent actors, actress, writers and directors. For students: The students had to work in groups. They could act doctors, patients or other different roles. Each role had to say at least five sentences and each group had to write down their play or dialogue and hand it in . Week2 Activity2 talk about future plansThis activity is based as in Junior English for China, Go for it, Unit3Purpose to: practice target language -Talk about vacationsInstructions: At first I got the individual students to say their vacation after class. Then I got the students to act out the play in groups.Procedure: When I finished teaching, I asked the students to tell the vacation after class. The next day I asked some students to tell vacation in class, and then I gave some necessary advice. Then the students worked in groups after class. One of them played
