글 없는 그림책을 활용한 이야기 꾸미기와 구연활동이 아동의 언어창의성 및 언어표현력에 미치는 효과

This research investigated the effect of story-plotting and oral narration activities using wordless picture books upon young children's linguistic creativity and expression. The subjects were 30 children of experimental group and another 30 in the control group at age five. The Korean Comprehensive Creativity Test for Young Children(K-CCTYC; Jeon, 2005) was used to measure linguistic creativity. In addition, Measure Tools for Linguistic Ability(Jang, 1981) was used to measure the linguistic expression. There were significant differences between the two groups in linguistic creativity including linguistic fluency, flexibility, and originality as well as linguistic expression.
