Abstract
The aim of this study is to examine the texts in the fifth grade Turkish textbook in terms of root values in the 2019 Turkish Language Teaching Program. Basic qualitative design, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the study. The object of the study is the fifth grade Turkish textbook of the Secondary School and Imam Hatip Secondary School prepared by Anıttepe Publishing, which was used as a Turkish textbook at the fifth grade level of secondary school in the 2022-2023 academic year. Research data were obtained through document analysis. Within the scope of the research, 40 reading, listening and free reading texts under 8 units in the fifth grade Turkish textbook were analyzed in terms of ten root values. In these evaluations, the sub-values related to the ten root values were taken as criteria. As a result of the research, the texts in the fifth grade Turkish textbook were related to the ten root values in 173 places in total. It was concluded that the most used values in the textbook are responsibility, self-control, patriotism and love, while the least used values are justice and honesty. When the units in the textbook were examined in relation to the values, it was found that the root values were mostly used in the units of Our National Culture, Virtues, Individual and Society; and least in the units of Health and Sports, Science and Technology, Nature and the Universe. As a result of the research, it was determined that the root values were not homogeneously distributed in the units and texts in the fifth grade Turkish textbook.
