Is an Environmental Education Program Integrated with Language Activities Effective on 48- to 66-Month-Old Children’s Environmental Awareness?

Öz

This research was conducted to determine whether an “Environmental Education Program Integrated with Language Activities” has an impact on environmental awareness of children aged 48- to 66 months. The sample consisted of 22 children selected using convenience sampling from 48- to 66-month-old children attending a nursery school. Among the sample, 12 children were included in the experimental group and 10 were in the control group. The study used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest control group design. The data were collected using a “General Information Form” and the “Environmental Awareness Assessment Scale for 48- to 66-Month-Old Children” developed by Kurt Gökçeli (2015). The analysis results showed that the “Environmental Education Program Integrated with Language Activities” produced significant growth in children’s environmental awareness in the experimental group, leading to a statistically significant difference (p < .05) between the experimental and control groups in favour of the experimental group.
