6. Tham khảo tài liệu tiếng Anh:  Dynamic verbs vs. stative verbs can cause confusion among students. But really they aren't as difficult or as complicated as you may think. The most important reason you need to know about these is because stative verbs can't usually be used in the progressive form. Some verbs are only (or mostly) used in simple tenses, and are not used in continuous tenses. An example of a simple tense is the present simple, or the past simple. An example of a continuous tense is the present continuous or past continuous. These verbs are called stative, or state verbs. A verb which isn’t stative is called a dynamic verb, and is usually an action. Often stative verbs are about liking or disliking something, or about a mental state, not about an action.  Firstly, what do the words "dynamic" and "stative" mean? They aren't very common words in everyday English, but they are grammar terms you will need to know to understand this subject. I. DYNAMIC VERBS  Dynamic verbs (or Action verbs) are verbs that describe actions. We can use them in the simple or continuous forms. Here are a few examples of action verbs: WALK . Every day I walk home from class. .I‘m walking to the store right now. READ . I read mostly historical fiction. .I‘ve been reading a novel that takes place during colonial times. HELP . My sister helps me with my homework. . My father is helping me learn how to drive. WATCH . Bob watches four hours of TV every night. . Last night, he got angry at me because I changed the channel while he was watching his favorite show.  First, here is a list of some dynamic verbs. You can see that they are all used to describe an action, change, or process. Most of them are used to describe an activity which has a start and an end. 19
7. Examples of dynamic verbs: eat walk learn grow sleep talk write run read become go These words can all be used in the progressive form. Example sentences with dynamic verbs: "I can't talk right now, I'm eating dinner." Present progressive used to describe an action happening now. "Sorry, I'm out of breath because I've been running." Present perfect progressive used to describe an action that started in the past, continued for some time and has results now. "I didn't steal the necklace! I was sleeping when someone broke into the shop!" Past progressive used to talk about an action that was happening at a particular time in the past. II. STATIVE VERBS  Stative verbs (or state verbs) describe a status or quality of something NOT an action. Verbs of perception, opinion, the senses, emotion, possession, and state of being are often stative verbs.  Here is a list of some of the stative verbs. Some of these describe relationships between things or people (for example, own) and some describe emotions or states of mind. Examples of stative verbs: 20
8. love hate like prefer doubt seem know own understand Example sentences with stative verbs, showing that these words cannot be used in the progressive form. Correct: "I like chocolate, but I prefer cake." Incorrect: "I'm liking chocolate but I'm preferring cake." Correct: "I don't understand you when you speak quickly."

10. need understand seem prefer believe depend agree remember matter mind recognise see own appear look (=seem) sound taste smell hear astonish deny disagree please impress satisfy promise surprise doubt think (=have an opinion) feel (=have an opinion) wish imagine concern dislike be have deserve involve include measure (=have length lack possess etc) owe weigh (=have weight) III. VERBS THAT CAN BE BOTH DYNAMIC AND STATIVE VERBS  There are also some verbs that can be either dynamic or stative, depending on their meaning and context in the sentence. I'm sure you know by now that there are many words in English that can have more than one meaning!  Some verbs can function as BOTH action verbs and stative verbs!  Here are some examples: BE: Be is usually a stative verb, but when it is used in the continuous it means 'behaving' or 'acting' . Stative: He is immature. (he is always immature) You are stupid (it's part of your personality) 23
11. . Action: He is being immature. (he is temporarily acting immature) You are being stupid (only now, not usually) HAVE . Stative: possession, own I have a car. He has a dog. . Action: expressions with “have”, part of an expression (I'm having a party / a picnic / a bath / a good time / a break) I’m having breakfast (eating breakfast). He’s having fun (experiencing fun). SEE . Stative: perception with your eyes; understanding I see some birds. I see what you mean. . Action: meet; have a relationship with, I’ll be seeing the doctor tomorrow. They’ve been seeing each other for a month. LOOK . Stative: appearance That cake looks delicious! . Action: directing your eyes to something; phrasal verbs He’s looking at the computer screen. She’s looking for (= seeking) a job. They’re looking after (= taking care of) my dog for the weekend. SMELL / TASTE . Stative: the quality of smell or taste possessed by something, has a certain taste The bar smells of smoke. This meat tastes like chicken. . Action: when a person uses their nose or mouth to test something, the action of tasting He’s smelling the cookies. She’s tasting the soup to see if it needs more salt. 24
12. THINK / FEEL . Stative: when talking about your opinion, having an opinion I think that’s a great idea! I feel that this is not the best use of our time. . Action: when using your mind, or experiencing emotions or health issues, considering, having in my head We’re thinking about moving to another city. I’ve been feeling unusually tired lately. WEIGH / MEASURE . Stative: when talking about the quality possessed by something The suitcase weighs 20 pounds. The surfboard measures 2 meters by 55 centimeters. . Action: when a person performs the action of weighing/measuring something The butcher is weighing the meat on the scale. The architects were measuring the distance between the pillars.  Examples of verbs that can be either dynamic or stative: think mind have smell sound Let's look at some examples of how these verbs are used differently. Example sentences: "I think it is wrong to hit children." Here, think is a stative verb. It means "to have an opinion" and it cannot be used in the progressive form in this case. BUT "I'm not being nosy. I'm minding my own business!" Here, minding means "looking after" and is therefore a process and a dynamic verb. "I have three brothers." 25
13. Have here talks about the family relationship the speaker has with her brothers and is therefore stative. BUT "I'm having a bad day today. I'll call you when things are better." Having in this sentence means the speaker is going through the process of a bad day. It is therefore dynamic. All this may seem complicated, but if you read and listen to as much English as you can, you will soon start to know which verbs sound right in the progressive. If you keep the basic idea of dynamic verbs vs. static verbs in the back of your mind, it will help you greatly. 26

Các điều kiện cần thiết để áp dụng sáng kiến: * Với giáo viên Việc trau dồi tri thức thường xuyên liên tục luôn là điều cần thiết đối với bất kỳ giáo viên nào. Cũng giống như Tiếng Việt, tất cả chúng ta đều cần sử dụng ngôn ngữ Tiếng Anh một cách đúng đắn trong các trường hợp. Khi sử dụng ngôn ngữ đúng, việc giao tiếp sẽ không bị hiểu sai và do đó ý tưởng được truyền tải cũng hay hơn, hấp dẫn hơn. Giáo viên cần hướng dẫn cho học sinh phương pháp tự học, khai thác kiến thức từ các nguồn thông tin để giờ học hiệu quả hơn. Một con số đáng cho bạn quan tâm đó là tiếng Anh chính là ngôn ngữ chính thức của hơn 53 quốc gia và vùng lãnh thổ, và là ngôn ngữ chính thức của khối E.U và là ngôn ngữ thứ 3 được nhiều người sử dụng nhất chỉ sau tiếng Trung Quốc và Tây Ban Nha (do sự chênh lệch về dân số các quốc gia sử dụng). Đặc biệt nếu các bạn có nhu cầu muốn đi du học, và các nước ở khối liên minh Châu Âu luôn là sự ưu tiên hàng đầu cho bạn bởi điều kiện sống và các trường học danh tiếng, thì tiếng Anh là một ngôn ngữ bạn không bao giờ có thể bỏ qua. Hơn nữa, Tiếng Anh là một ngôn ngữ đẹp, gắn liền với nhiều nét văn hóa đặc sắc từ những quốc gia sử dụng nó. Nếu cảm thấy mình thực sự yêu thích và đam mê tiếng Anh thì tôi tin chắc rằng bạn sẽ sớm thành thạo ngôn ngữ này. Vậy nên, chúng ta hãy chau chuốt hơn về cách sử dụng tiếng Anh từ những mảng kiến thức nhỏ bé để sử dụng Tiếng Anh chính xác hơn, tự tin hơn. Ngoài ra, giáo viên cũng cần chuẩn bị các điều kiện cần thiết cho một giờ giảng: soạn giáo án word, tài liệu bổ trợ, tài liệu tham khảo, handouts, máy tính, máy chiếu, * Với học sinh 27
15. Học sinh cần được thầy cô chỉ dẫn trước mục tiêu bài học, chuẩn bị bài trước khi đến lớp. Học sinh được chia cặp trước và được phân chia nhiệm vụ bài học cụ thể. Vốn từ và hiểu biết chung là điều không thể thiếu đối với bất kỳ ai. Học sinh cũng cần phải có những yếu tố đó. Và việc kết hợp với vốn hiểu biết sẵn có, cộng với sự tích cực tư duy thảo luận theo nhóm, theo cặp trong giờ học nói là điều cần thiết. 9. Đánh giá lợi ích thu được hoặc dự kiến có thể thu được do áp dụng sáng kiến Việc lồng ghép các nội dung cần thiết vào nội dung vốn có của các môn học là xu hướng trong thời gian gần đây của giáo dục. Cùng với đó học sinh cần nắm chắc kiến thức, làm chủ được ngôn ngữ sẽ giúp học sinh tự tin hơn. Chuẩn bị kỹ lưỡng cho một bài giảng khiến bản thân tôi được tư duy hơn, có cơ hội tìm tòi, học hỏi thêm, phát triển ý tưởng sáng tạo qua mỗi bài giảng để một giờ học hấp dẫn hơn. Học sinh nắm được bản chất của vấn đề sẽ khắc sâu kiến thức hơn, cảm thấy hứng thú hơn với bài giảng và do đó giờ học diễn ra sôi nổi, hiệu quả hơn. Học sinh được hoạt động, là trung tâm của giờ học. các em thảo luận sôi nổi, mạnh dạn đưa ra quan điểm của mình. Hy vọng những kiến thức được trình bày ở trên sẽ không chỉ giúp đồng nghiệp có thêm một nguồn tài liệu đáng tin cậy để tham khảo và học sinh cũng có thêm được một mảng kiến thức được trình bày rõ ràng, đầy đủ giúp các em tự tin hơn trong giải các câu hỏi ở các đề kiểm tra, đề thi cũng như sử dụng đúng trong giao tiếp. 28
