ACTIVITY: Storytelling
                    Keloğlan and Şehrazat
Objectives of the story (KELOĞLAN and ŞEHRAZAT) for Communicative Language Competence

Aims of Linguistic Aspects
            Vocabulary:
Ø  Learning basic words related to greeting expressions (good morning, good afternoon, good evening, good night)
Ø  To help students to reach a consensus about the meanings of some new vocabularies that they can come across in their daily life (heart, school, girl, boy, box, mum, water). Namely, the main aim of story to teach basic greeting expressions, but students will learn some additional words related to the story.




  Aims of language areas:
Ø  To make students aware of some collocations, chunks, formulaic expressions related to basic greeting expressions. (Hello, what is your name? My name is… How are you? Nice to meet you, bye bye.)
Ø  To make students more familiar to the usage of Simple Present Tense and how am/is/are, possessive pronouns (my, your, his, her) are used via greeting expressions. Students will get the rules inductively. (The grammatical rules are not given explicitly, but teachers expect from students to hypothesize them through the dialogues in the story.)
Ø  To help learners aware of some meanings of simple adjectives (lovely, kind, beautiful, bad) Students do not need to know the meaning, but they will understand lovely has a positive connotation as bad has a negative connotation.

Psychological Aims:

Ø  To create a stress-free environment through telling the story in an  amusing way adding intonation and also prosodic elements ( gestures, mimics, facial expressions, mimics), using visual aided materials (picture of characters), authentic materials (the hat of Keloğlan and Şehrazat)
Ø  To raise curiosity and positive attitude to learning language creating sense of humor and being active via interactive activities (role play, dramatization)

Cognitive Aims:

Ø  To help students to use the story not as an means but as an end that they get experience on learning to learn) how to use the language in an interactive way through dialogues and dramatization of the story.
Ø  To teach some universal themes (love, hatred, respect, friendship) and to keep the positive ones alive.

Socio-cultural aims:

Ø  To help learners to make a cross- cultural comparison (for example; pouring water and to say “Allahısmarladık” when someone goes away is a tradition in Turkish culture, but there is no such a kind of ritual in target culture)
Ø  To make learners aware of our own social values (respecting elders, kissing hands of our elders…etc.)

PRE-STORY TELLING STAGE (WARM UP)

Ø  First teacher asks students some questions to activate their previous knowledge such as; Do you like stories? Who is he? (showing the picture of Keloğlan) Do you like Keloğlan stories?  Do you want to listen a Keloğlan story?

WHILE- STORYTELLING STAGE
