Reflections of Supporting Refugee Children's Everyday Language Skills on Classroom Peer Relations

Öz

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the effects of supporting everyday language skills on peer relationships in an inclusive classroom with Syrian refugee children living in Gaziantep. Method: Action research, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. The participants of the study were five Syrian refugee children aged between 68-74 months and their parents. Data were collected through observation forms, field notes, home visits, semi-structured interview forms and checklists developed by the researchers. At the beginning of the research, children's strengths and aspects that needed to be supported were identified and action plans were prepared for them. The action plans, which were revised after expert opinions, were implemented by the researcher in the classroom twice a week for a total of three weeks. The data obtained were analyzed with an inductive approach using the content analysis method. Findings: As a result of the interviews conducted with parents in this study, it was observed that children who received support from their parents for the development of their language skills were more harmonious in classroom and peer relations and had higher social skills compared to children who did not receive support. The effects of the action plans implemented in the classroom on daily language skills were monitored and it was observed that Syrian children actively participated in the activities and exhibited more harmonious behaviors in the classroom and how they reflected on peer relations in the process. According to the data obtained from the action process; it was observed that children who did not understand Turkish language at all understood everyday language and gave meaningful reactions in the process, and children who understood Turkish language but could not speak it increased their tendency to speak Turkish.
