Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to develop a program for news literacy classes for elementary school students.
 Methods: In this research, we examined theories related to news literacy before analyzing curriculum, textbooks, and students' comprehension patterns to develop a program for news literacy classes.
 Results: The objectives of the news literacy class were presented by dividing them into the areas of knowledge, skills, and attitudes. The instructional stages were proposed as five steps: access, analyze, evaluate, produce, and reflect.
 Conclusion: News literacy classes should cultivate elementary school students' abilities to access, comprehend, judge, and engage in productive and collaborative communication with the news. It is hoped that the results of this study can serve as foundational material for designing media-related lessons in elementary school.
