Abstract

<p style="text-align:justify">Recently, various premises have underpinned the primary education in Turkey. Among these premises, one of the most striking was implementing the teaching of nglish as part of the primary education in 1997. With the introduction of nglish at the primary education level, the need for appropriate coursebooks and a new curriculum emerged. The Ministry of ducation published some materials to meet this need, the last of which is the "nglish Language Curriculum for Primary ducation" in 2006. New coursebooks were written and published in light of this curriculum. This study aims to analyze the grammar activities in a coursebook named Spring 6 for sixth graders in public schools. The analysis has been based on the terms of Batstone's three ways of sequencing grammar learning activities, which are; noticing, structuring, and proceduralizing.</p>
