The purposes of the study were (1) to understand when and how the teacher used when scaffolding children's ability when helping children made story books, and (2) to learn what the difficulties the teacher faced and resolved when helping children made story books. Qualitative research methods were used in this study. Data were collected through participant observation, reflective journals, interviews, documental data and member checking. This study found that at the beginning of story-book making stage the teacher was: (1) providing a supportive classroom environment, (2) connecting children's experiences to their stories, (3) trying different types of writing practices, and , (4) encouraging a mother to help her child at home. As all the children joined the story-book making, the teacher was: (1) inviting a speaker to analyze a story, (2) encouraging children to learn from each other, and (3) suggesting to establish one's own scaffolding methods. At the end of the story-making stage, the teacher encouraged the cooperation of small groups. As to the methods the teacher used in solving the problems when scaffolding children's learning were: slowing down the working pace and allowing children to critic the content of the story books. Finally, the study suggested that (1) teachers should provide much time for children to learn; (2) adults should broaden children's life experience in order to enrich their ability of creation; (3) teachers should provide children with ample writing opportunities; and (4) parent should work with children to make their own story books together. |
