A szavaktól a történetekig

Abstract

The quality of communication is closely linked to the successfulness of our studies, work, and relations. Our linguistic competence determines our life and achievements unperceived – and we are evaluated based on this most of the time. This study introduces the characteristics of storytelling in kindergarten. It shows how fluent and independent text production is at this age. In this text analysis, some newly constructed indicators are included among the full set of research indicators – besides other aspects already known from previous research. Based on the findings, we might conclude that this competence influencing our life in the long run, needs to be developed consciously in kindergarten already. The development may prepare the successfulness of teaching composition writing and of independent text production, and finally, it may build adults’ self-confidence in communication situations.
