Özet
The language is one of the most basic instruments in using the basic language skills and thinking strategies that the individual will use lifelong to establish a healthy communication with surroundings during his/her self-development process. This basic instrument is practiced on the mother tongue axis. The Turkish lesson in our country is also in key position to develop the basic language skills and thinking skills. Language teaching is practiced via the texts. So this makes the features of texts involved in Turkish schoolbooks much more important. The texts are instruments one each to develop the language, intellectual, social, and intellectual independency skills in Turkish teaching. (Gunes, 2009, p. 16). The constructivism approach explains how this instrument is required to be used within the frame of its assumptions. In this study the texts in Turkish schoolbooks of 5th class in secondary schools are intended to be examined in terms of constructivism approach. In the study eight texts are selected from the Turkish schoolbook of 5th class with a qualitative approach and these texts are examined in terms of features of constructivism. The study performed is considered to be a guide to select texts for the Turkish schoolbooks. (C) 2013 The Authors Published by Elsevier Ltd.
