Exploring elementary English instruction to reinforce core competencies: A foundational study on the development of picture book based programs. Primary English Education

This study focuses on developing a picture book-based program to enhance six key competencies in primary English education, aligning with the 2022 revised curriculum: self-management, creative thinking, collaborative communication, community, aesthetic sensibility, and knowledge-information processing competence. The program is structured into three stages: building foundational competencies by focusing on self-management and creative thinking, activating competencies by targeting collaborative communication and community competence, and deepening competencies by developing aesthetic sensibility and knowledge-information processing. Each stage integrates specific genres of picture books, such as graphic novels for self-management and multicultural books and realistic books for community competence. This research also offers a framework for teachers to align their practices with the 2022 curriculum goals, fostering a comprehensive learning experience through literature. The framework consists of three phases: Initiation (activating prior knowledge and learning vocabulary), Reading (engaging with texts through repeated reading activities), and Sharing (expressing personal responses and reflecting through discussions). Practical activities and edutech tools are provided to guide teachers in implementing the program effectively, helping them align with the curriculum’s objectives. Future research should explore long-term applications across various grades and assess how genre and edutech diversity influences primary English learners
