Turkish Language Program (Ages 9-16)

Turkish Language Program (Ages 9-16)

Purpose of the program for Group 2 (Ages 9-16):

We aim to create a program where children between 9-16 will become active participants of the program by bringing their previous knowledge and experiences to our classes. We pay special attention to developing their critical thinking, problem solving and research capabilities further while learning Turkish in an interactive and creative environment. We believe that language learning can be achieved best when the language is utilized in a systematic structure and true language environment.

 

We aim to develop language awareness for each child by focus on reading, writing, speaking and listening capabilities in each theme. Some of our activities will include stories, songs, drama exercises, games, comprehension questions, fill-in-the-blanks exercises as well as puzzles. These activities will be diversified based on the individual differences and interests of the children. For visual learners, special focus will be on illustrated stories, for oral learners, there will be songs, listening activities and word repetitions. For kinesthetic learners, there will be hands-on and movement based activities. In line with the theory of multiple intelligences, we will offer different activities to fulfill the needs of each  type of intelligence.
