İstiklâl Marşı Korkma, sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak; Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak. O benim milletimin yıldızıdır, parlayacak; O benimdir, o benim milletimindir ancak. Çatma, kurban olayım, çehreni ey nazlı hilâl! Kahraman ırkıma bir gül! Ne bu şiddet, bu celâl? Sana olmaz dökülen kanlarımız sonra helâl... Hakkıdır, Hakk a tapan, milletimin istiklâl! Ben ezelden beridir hür yaşadım, hür yaşarım. Hangi çılgın bana zincir vuracakmış? Şaşarım! Kükremiş sel gibiyim, bendimi çiğner, aşarım. Yırtarım dağları, enginlere sığmam, taşarım. Garbın âfâkını sarmışsa çelik zırhlı duvar, Benim iman dolu göğsüm gibi serhaddim var. Ulusun, korkma! Nasıl böyle bir imanı boğar, Medeniyet! dediğin tek dişi kalmış canavar? Arkadaş! Yurduma alçakları uğratma, sakın. Siper et gövdeni, dursun bu hayâsızca akın. Doğacaktır sana va dettiği günler Hakk ın... Kim bilir, belki yarın, belki yarından da yakın. Bastığın yerleri toprak! diyerek geçme, tanı: Düşün altındaki binlerce kefensiz yatanı. Sen şehit oğlusun, incitme, yazıktır, atanı: Verme, dünyaları alsan da, bu cennet vatanı. Kim bu cennet vatanın uğruna olmaz ki fedâ? Şühedâ fışkıracak toprağı sıksan, şühedâ! Cânı, cânânı, bütün varımı alsın da Huda, Etmesin tek vatanımdan beni dünyada cüdâ. Ruhumun senden, İlâhi, şudur ancak emeli: Değmesin mabedimin göğsüne nâmahrem eli. Bu ezanlar-ki şahadetleri dinin temeli- Ebedî yurdumun üstünde benim inlemeli. O zaman vecd ile bin secde eder-varsa-taşım, Her cerîhamdan, İlâhi boşanıp kanlı yaşım, Fışkırır ruh-ı mücerred gibi yerden na şım; O zaman yükselerek arşa değer belki başım. Dalgalan sen de şafaklar gibi ey şanlı hilâl! Olsun artık dökülen kanlarımın hepsi helâl. Ebediyen sana yok, ırkıma yok izmihlâl: Hakkıdır, hür yaşamış, bayrağımın hürriyet; Hakkıdır, Hakk a tapan, milletimin istiklâl! Mehmet Âkif ERSOY 3
GENÇLİĞE HİTABE Ey Türk gençliği! Birinci vazifen, Türk istiklâlini, Türk Cumhuriyetini, ilelebet muhafaza ve müdafaa etmektir. Mevcudiyetinin ve istikbalinin yegâne temeli budur. Bu temel, senin en kıymetli hazinendir. İstikbalde dahi, seni bu hazineden mahrum etmek isteyecek dâhilî ve hâricî bedhahların olacaktır. Bir gün, istiklâl ve cumhuriyeti müdafaa mecburiyetine düşersen, vazifeye atılmak için, içinde bulunacağın vaziyetin imkân ve şeraitini düşünmeyeceksin! Bu imkân ve şerait, çok namüsait bir mahiyette tezahür edebilir. İstiklâl ve cumhuriyetine kastedecek düşmanlar, bütün dünyada emsali görülmemiş bir galibiyetin mümessili olabilirler. Cebren ve hile ile aziz vatanın bütün kaleleri zapt edilmiş, bütün tersanelerine girilmiş, bütün orduları dağıtılmış ve memleketin her köşesi bilfiil işgal edilmiş olabilir. Bütün bu şeraitten daha elîm ve daha vahim olmak üzere, memleketin dâhilinde iktidara sahip olanlar gaflet ve dalâlet ve hattâ hıyanet içinde bulunabilirler. Hattâ bu iktidar sahipleri şahsî menfaatlerini, müstevlîlerin siyasî emelleriyle tevhit edebilirler. Millet, fakr u zaruret içinde harap ve bîtap düşmüş olabilir. Ey Türk istikbalinin evlâdı! İşte, bu ahval ve şerait içinde dahi vazifen, Türk istiklâl ve cumhuriyetini kurtarmaktır. Muhtaç olduğun kudret, damarlarındaki asil kanda mevcuttur. Mustafa Kemal ATATÜRK 4

COURSE INTRODUCTION Course Components The Student s Book It consists of 10 main units. Student s Book presents new words, structures and functions in clear, real to life and fun contexts. The three skills of language (reading, listening, and speaking) are practised in each unit. All listening parts, songs and chants are recorded on CD by native speakers of the target language. The Workbook It attempts to reinforce the skills and functions introduced in the respective units of the Student s Book through various activities. The Teacher s Book It contains practical guidance and suggestions on how to use the Student s Book and the Workbook. You can find the micropages of the Student s Book and the Workbook as well as the answers of the activities. Methodology This course is intended for young learners at the age of eleven. It has a more contemporary approach to teaching English to learners of this age. The course is based on learner centered approach, which takes students in the centre of he learning process. The principles of such theories as Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP), Multiple Intelligences (MI) and Whole Brain Learning (WBL) dominate the new language classes. The recent methodology also gives the learners the chance to use the target language to communicate in real to life contexts. It integrates four language skills (listening, reading, writing and speaking) in a meaningful and useful way. It focuses on vocabulary, spelling, pronunciation, structure and comprehension and increases student interaction and collaboration. It makes the learning process a fun and enjoyable experience for the young learners. This course teaches the target language through a cross curricular model, which facilitates learning by integrating all subjects (maths, science, music, etc.) through the use of the foreign language and allows learners to inquire and connect their previous knowledge and experience. The course has a mixed syllabus design. It makes use of the elements taken from the grammatical/structural syllabus, the situational syllabus, the topical/ theme-based syllabus, the communicative syllabus, the procedural/taskbased syllabus and the skills-based syllabus. A cyclical format has been adopted in this course where the young learners revise previous subjects in different manifestations while learning new ones. 10
The course is based on knowledge and skills the young learners have already acquired in their mother tongue. It makes use of guessing and deduction games, predictions, songs, chants and other activities students favour. Language Skills This course integrates the three main language skills; reading, listening, and speaking systematically through a variety of activities and tasks. Listening: Listening activities give students the chance to hear how natives speak the respective language. While listening they are supposed to perform such tasks as pointing, drawing, marking, colouring, responding, etc. Speaking: In this course, students develop speaking skills through songs, chants, games and fun activities gradually. Reading: Young learners read short simple texts and dialogues for general comprehension and specific details. Comprehension is checked through various spoken and written activities. Materials Student s Book, Workbook and Audio CDs are the main materials of the course. Use of real objects, visuals and audio material such as posters, pictures, flashcards, films, CDs are strongly recommended for effective and meaningful practice. Evaluation The evaluation procedures you use must be in line with the teaching methods and techniques. According to European Language Portfolio, you can have students keep a dossier, in which they file their work such as tasks, letters, postcards, etc. The Language Biography facilitates the learner s involvement in planning, reflecting upon and assessing his/her learning process and progress. It encourages the learner to state what he/she can do in each language and to include information on linguistic and cultural experiences gained in and outside formal educational contexts. The Language Passport section provides an overview of the individual s proficiency in a foreign language at a given point in time. The overview is defined in terms of skills and the common reference levels in the Common European Framework. It records formal qualifications and describes language competencies and significant language and intercultural learning process. Other assessment tools include writing assessment, portfolio assessment, classroom assessment, self assessment, teacher observation (anecdotal records, checklists, rating scales). 11
