Grammar is a branch of science that examines the sounds, forms, and sentence structures of a language. It is important for individuals to communicate more effectively. Grammar instruction helps students learn to use the language effectively and elegantly, enabling them to communicate better with one another and their surroundings. In this regard, grammar instruction in schools plays a significant role. In grammar instruction, just as with other language skills, a curriculum-based approach must be followed. Textbooks are the most important materials for implementing what is specified in the curriculum within the classroom environment. For this reason, Turkish textbooks are also the primary resource for Turkish language classes. They are among the most important materials that help students gain awareness and guide them through the education and instruction process. Curricula guide teachers on how to conduct the lessons. This study focuses on the language structures found in 5th-grade Turkish textbooks, within the framework of the new Turkish Language Course Curriculum that came into effect in 2024. Consequently, the aim of this study is to examine the language structures in the 2024 Middle School Turkish Language Course Curriculum and the 5th-grade Turkish textbook. The language structures in the Turkish curriculum and the examples and activities related to these structures in the textbook are examined. The study was conducted using qualitative research methods, and data were collected through document analysis. The data were analyzed using content analysis. The results show that in the 2024 Turkish Language Curriculum, grammar is addressed as a separate section titled “Language Structures,” and that the Turkish textbook includes activities focused on these topics.
