The role dialogue and story plot in the story of fairy tales contain lots of language components in this study and is one of the children’s favorite form of activities. In many studies in the literature for preschool children (Mages, 2008; Can- Yaşar, 2009; Laurin, 2010; Ceylan & Ömeroğlu, 2012; Kaya, Günay & Aydın, 2016), all emphasize drama education as an important element of their learning and development. Based on the age characteristics of 4-5year old and two dimensions of children's language ability (listening and expression, reading and narration), four children drama education activities were designed and quasi-experimented in the experimental class.
