Adaptatıon of Native Language Reading Story Books Aslanın Krallığı to Elementary Level (A1-A2) in Turkish as a Foreign Language Teaching

Summary/Abstract: Teaching Turkish as a foreign language, which has received increasing interest in recent years, needs supplementary materials beyond textbooks. The necessity of preparing supplementary reading books that will meet this need has emerged. Creating reading materials especially suitable for students' levels will contribute to language teaching and a better understanding of Turkish culture. In the current situation, when teaching Turkish to foreigners in Turkey, the lack of reading materials suitable for the target language levels is noticeable. In this context, within the scope of qualitative research, the reading book titled The Kingdom of the Lion, which was prepared as a native language reading book, was transformed into a basic level reading book in a foreign language by using adaptation techniques. Each paragraph of the story is translated separately and shown in tables, using the simplification, expansion and simplification methods generally used in adaptations. According to the findings, it was concluded that preparing basic level (A1-A2) reading material for teaching Turkish as a foreign language could contribute to students' improving their reading skills and better understanding. It has been concluded that creating story books at appropriate levels for those learning Turkish as a foreign language will make a valuable contribution to language teaching practice.
