Özet
Çocukların ilk öğretmenleri anne babalarıdır ve ilk eğitimlerinden ve kişilik gelişimlerinden anne babalar sorumludur. Verimli ve kaliteli bir eğitimde; öğretim programı, öğretim ortamı ve öğretmen kadar, aile işbirliğinin de yeri büyüktür. Bu çalışma, bu görüşler ışığında, aileyi çocuk ile eğitim hayatında birleştirmeyi hedeflemiş; vasıta olarak ise zor ve sıkıcı olarak nitelendirilen “fen etkinlikleri uygulamalarını” esas almıştır. Çalışmada araştırmacı tarafından programın kazanımlarına paralel olarak hazırlanan 17 etkinlik, “ebeveyn-çocuk” etkinliği olarak belirli aralıklarla Kuzey Kıbrıs Türk Cumhuriyeti Milli Eğitim ve Kültür Bakanlığı İlköğretim Dairesine bağlı bir okul öncesi kurumda eğitim gören 25 öğrencinin ailesine sunulmuş ve ebeveynlerden dönüt alınmıştır. Çalışma, deneysel desen ile nicel araştırma yöntemlerine göre yürütülmüştür. Tek grup ön test son test çalışması uygulanan araştırmada veriler; Demografik Form, Aile Katılımı Ölçeği ve Öğrenci Kazanım Formu ile toplanmıştır. Çalışmanın sonucunda, yapılan uygulamaların aile katılımını önemli ölçüde artırdığı ve çocukların kazanımlarında anlamlı farklılıklar ortaya çıkardığı saptanmıştır.
