ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Article History: Received 18.09.2014 Received in revised form 15.11.2014 Accepted 27.11.2014 Available online 01.03.2015 Turkish lesson is the most basic step in which language development process is placed on formal education in line with acquisitions established, from reading-writing training process to the last class of secondary school. In this process, it is an unquestionable fact that Turkish textbook is the most leading material in bringing and development of four basic language skills. Even if Turkish textbooks are prepared according to constructivist approach taken as a basis in education programs in our country, when acquisitions which are targeted to access are taken into consideration, it was revealed in many studies that textbooks have different problems in instructional aspect. One of the important instructional features of textbooks is illustrations used together with texts. In this study, texts and illustrations in elementary school 1st Class Turkish textbook belonging to Zambak Press were examined in terms of image-text relation. In the research that is a descriptive study, document review method was used. Number of illustration used in text, positioning form of illustrations in text, colors used and relativity of colors to child were evaluated according to image-illustration relation categories. Adequate image-text relation was found only in 18 of 56 illustrations examined in the study. 26 of illustrations are not adequate in terms of image-text relation. It was found that relation is partially adequate in 12 of illustrations. © 2015 IOJES. All rights reserved
