This study aims to underline the extent to which books written as nasihatname genre can serve as an important source for immersing young generations with some universal values like justice, honesty, patience, respect and helpfulness which take place in the Secondary Education Turkish Language and Literature subject (9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades) Curriculum. Six nasihatnames in verse, Vasiyyet-i Nûşirevân-ı Âdil Be-Püsereş Hürmüz-i Tâcdâr, Şeyh Eşref b. Ahmed Nasihat-nâmesi, Pendnâme-i Emîrî Çelebi, Hayriyye, Lutfiyye and Pend-nâme-i Lokman Hekim Terceme-i Manzumesi, were chosen as sample and these texts were analysed descriptively. Main reason for examining these documents in the study is that the authors allocated their works directly for children and some of them did that specifically for their own kids. The data collected from the documents which were examined for the study shows that the texts in classical Turkish Literature written in XIII-XIX centuries have a highly rich content regarding their content for conveying universal values and in this context, it’s necessary to expand space for the nasihatnames in classrooms. The main reason for writing nasihatnames is to remind, to teach and to adopt the transcendent values explicitly or implicitly, by referring or pointing to a moral significance of an action; in addition, they help the audience apply the values in their lives, transfer the values the next generations and thus make them virtuous people. This study suggest that the texts of Classical Turkish Literature can be used as a quite effective educational tool for transferring values to the young minds with careful planning, studying, determining, and classifying process which is proper for the interests, needs, and the level of perception of today’s children.
