Classroom Teaching \ 1-1
Dear Reader,
In this book, which was prepared with the contributions of experts in the field, we primarily took the content of the Children's Literature course determined by the Council of Higher Education as a basis. Then, we aimed to take the contemporary approaches in the field of children's literature as a basis. Thus, there were 15 topics in our book. Based on the fact that reading is a visual acceptance process in every respect, we have added a supporting reading and movie list at the end of each chapter.
We hope that we have prepared a book that will open a new door for you in your professional life, that will allow you to mix up another book, that contains words that you will feel the need to underline while reading. We know that the fate of science is to be passed, and we hope that this book will be able to be among the qualified academic studies of children's literature in the literature.

The life of the individual, which begins with his birth, continues with infancy, childhood and school periods. Each semester is a new adventure, a new learning. Childhood, the period in which most things are learned in life, is one of the most special periods of human life. This book has been written to provide parents, psychological counselors, psychologists, teachers, experts and trainees with a detailed examination of the child's development and problems, from the prenatal period to the end of adolescence.
In every society, the main goal is to raise children mentally and physically healthy. Although mental and physical health, the foundation of which is laid in the mother's womb, mutually affect each other, if a person who is in good physical health is not mentally healthy, he does not enjoy life and feels unhappy. Negative events in childhood do not only impair mental health during childhood, but the effects of this continue in adulthood. For this reason, it is the key to raising healthy generations that children's social, emotional and cognitive development, personality and language development progress in accordance with their age, living in harmony with their environment and showing their talents, and feeling themselves as valuable and loved individuals. Knowing how the normal development of children follows and how to continue this course without interruption will enable us to raise mentally healthy children.
For reasons beyond our control, mental health problems may occur in children. Timely detection and treatment of these problems will prevent or minimize permanent damage to children's mental health.
In this book the steps that children go through for a mentally healthy development, the factors affecting their development, and some important and common mental problems are explained. It contains a lot of information, especially for students and teachers of psychological counseling and guidance, child development and psychology departments of universities. It is also hoped that the book will be useful to parents who are interested in the subject.

The media has become one of the most important parts of our daily lives by transforming and often reproducing the values of the society we live in. Undoubtedly, children are the most vulnerable segment of society in the face of the media. Children are abused not only by the media, but also in other social areas – legal, political and economic.
We believe that the main purpose in any child-related problem is to evaluate the existing conditions with a realistic eye and to create and implement an emergency action plan with the participation and sensitivity of all parties. In today's world, where the diplomatic and political dimensions of events and facts come to the fore rather than the solution of the problems experienced, "The realization of children's rights is the fulfillment of responsibilities." With the hope that this book, which deals with the subject of media and children from various dimensions, will contribute to a more sensitive approach to all kinds of issues related to children.
Children who manage to become children are very lucky, they are very magical…

“Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder” (ADHD) is a neuropsychiatric disorder that can disrupt an individual's social life, academic life and family relationships. Although it is a disease that can completely change the future of the child if it is not treated and intervened correctly, satisfactory answers begin to emerge as a result of the right approach and appropriate interventions.
In my 20-year career as a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, I have experienced many times that only drug therapy is not sufficient in the treatment of Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder. The fact that family attitudes and the interventions of the teacher in the classroom are as important as psychopharmacological treatment has motivated me to write such a book.
With this book, it is aimed to inform about the mistakes that we know to be true about Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder, which is heard by everyone and perhaps defined as today's fashion disease. In addition, it is aimed both to ensure that children with ADHD are understood and to strengthen effective behavior management for families and teachers by providing accurate information and tips to our families and teachers about the relationship between ADHD and learning, which causes misunderstandings and prejudices.
We hope that this book, which offers solutions suitable for the needs of children who are our future, will be a useful resource for everyone who reads it.

A Roadmap for Adults Before Starting A Dramatic Fairy Tale
A Dramatic Fairy Tale is a book that goes beyond traditional fairy tales that are merely read or listened to. What makes this book unique is that your child becomes mentally and physically active, while you take on the role of a guide. In other words, every reader who engages with this fairy tale will shape their own story by using their imagination.
With A Dramatic Fairy Tale, you will be able to carry out drama activities with your children at home or in the classroom. When using this fairy tale book, which incorporates drama techniques, you should remember that the leading role belongs to your child.
Before starting A Dramatic Fairy Tale, the first and most important step is for you, as adults, to prepare in advance and internalize the story. This familiarity will help you give clear guidance and will enable your child to more easily identify with the main character and actively shape the fairy tale.
Another important step when beginning A Dramatic Fairy Tale is to use clear, simple, and understandable language when giving instructions to your child. If necessary, you may explain the instructions in more detail and offer hints—but you should never provide direct ideas. Our goal is for children to complete the fairy tale by generating their own original ideas.
Most importantly, during the activity, even ideas and suggestions that may seem simple should be acknowledged and met with positive feedback. Whether their ideas seem wild or unusual, they are their ideas—and every thought they express is extremely valuable to us. If you wish, you may further expand the instructions. Adding your own creative touches can make the fairy tale even more enjoyable.
Please remember: our children are the world’s best “PLAY EXPERTS.”

A person who can communicate with the other end of the world and is instantly aware of what is happening finds it natural that he does not know his neighbor living in the same building. In today's world, where a new technology is put into the service of humanity every day, such negativities show that the role of effective communication is more and more important than ever before.
The narratives, far from claiming to be the last word or to form definitive judgments, aim to help each person discover the essence of communication and especially body language. The slightest contribution to have a positive and different perspective in your communication with the people around you will ensure that the work achieves its purpose.
