AİLE TEMELLİ DİL BECERİLERİNİ GÜÇLENDİRME PROGRAMI GELİŞTİRME

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, aile katılımının çocukların dil gelişimini nasıl etkilediğini araştırmaktır. Bu bağlamda, “Aile Temelli Dil Becerilerini Güçlendirme Programı” [ATDGP] oluşturulmuştur. Karma araştırma yaklaşımıyla yürütülen bu çalışmaya üçüncü sınıf seviyesinde eğitim gören 7 öğrenci ve aileleri katılmıştır. Ön test ve son test olarak öğrencilerin Türkçe becerilerini belirlemek amacıyla sınavı yapılmıştır. Ön test uygulamasının ardından 50 günlük uygulama süresi boyunca çevrim içi toplantılar aracılığıyla ailelere onar günlük etkinlik programları dağıtılmıştır. 10 gün sonrasında ailelerle bir araya gelinerek on günlük süreç değerlendirilmiştir. Program, etkileşimli sesli kitap okuma, müze ve park ziyaretleri ve ailelerin ve çocukların günlük tutmalarını teşvik etme gibi dil gelişimine yönelik etkinlikleri içermektedir. Çalışma, çocukların dil becerilerinin gelişmesinin yanı sıra, sağlıklı ebeveyn-çocuk ilişkisi ve çocukların okuma alışkanlıkları edinmesi gibi özelliklerde de faydalar olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. ATDGP'nin çocukların dil becerilerinin gelişiminde etkili olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. Bu sonuçlara paralel olarak, hem araştırmacılar hem de aileler için öneriler sunulmuştur.

DEVELOPING A FAMILY-BASED LANGUAGE SKILLS STRENGTHENING PROGRAM

Öz

The purpose of this study was to investigate how family engagement influences children's language development. To accomplish this, a "Family-Based Language Skills Strengthening Program" [FBSLP] was created. The mixed-method study included seven third-grade students and their families. Before beginning the program, a language skills exam was conducted as a pre-test and post-test, and then ten-day activity schedules were distributed to families via online meetings during the 50-day implementation period. After 10 days, the families evaluated the method. The program includes language-development activities including interactive read-aloud books, museum and park visits, and encouragement for families and children to create journals. The study found that, in addition to improving children's language skills, there were benefits in attributes such as healthy parent-child relationship and children's acquisition of reading habits. It was concluded that FBSLP is effective in the development of children's language skills. In line with these results, recommendations are presented for both researchers and families.
