5. Using music during the lesson. This activity provides students with challenging learning activities, which helps to
improve students’ listening skill. Using this technique, the teacher plays a song and
then the students should participate in one or more of the following activities:
Close Procedure- Selected keywords are removed from the text of the song and
are placed in a word list that precedes the song lyrics. Students fill in the missing
words as they listen to the song
Word Bingo- Students select words from the text of the song and place them in a
bingo grid. Individually or in a small group, students then mark off the words as
they hear them in the song. The first student or group to check off the words is the
winner.
Reordering- Particular phrases of the song are listed in an incorrect order. Students

must number the phrases in the order that they appear in the song. An alternative
activity is to' write the song phrases on sentence strips. Students must then organize
the strips in the proper order.
Retelling- depending on the language capabilities of the student, retelling can begin
with a simulation of the action within the song. Then, the students retell the story of
the song.
Then, the students retell the story of the song intheir own words, in a round, with each
student contributing as much as he or she can in one sentence. As an extension of this
activity, students could work in groups to illustrate scenes from the song.The groups
could then retell the story using their illustrations.
In many English classes, students read texts and demonstrate their understanding by
responding to these texts in writing. While this practice is generally effective, students
can be taught the same skills but in a more engaging andinnovative way. By utilizing
innovative English teaching strategies, teachers can increase
students’ overall enjoyment of the subject and encourage them to become lifelong
learners, continuing their education long after they leave the classroom.
In conclusion, I can say that the methods and techniques given above not only
motivate students, as well as due to them they can improve the main four skills such
as reading, speaking, listening and writing which are very important in knowing a
language.
