그림책을 활용한 이야기만들기에서 나타난 유아의 내러티브 탐구

Narrative Analysis of Young Children’s Creating a Story through Picture Books

본 연구는 그림책을 통한 이야기만들기에서 나타나는 유아들의 내러티브를 탐구해 보고자 하였다. 참여유아는 만 4세 학급의 유아 8명이다. 자료수집은 2018년 10월 8일에서 11월 30일까지이며, 수집한 자료는 유아들이 만든 이야기 활동기록물, 연구일지이다. 본 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 그림책을 통한 유아의 내러티브는 그림책 주인공과 만남 이어가기, 내 삶의 경험들을 재현하기, 이야기 속에서 해결방법 찾기로 범주화 할 수 있었다. 유아들은 그림책을 읽고 함께 이야기를 만들면서 서로가 서로의 반응을 이끌어 주는 모습을 보였다. 유아들은 그림책의 이야기를 모방하면서 자신의 이야기를 구축하고, 자신들의 경험을 연결시켜 내용을 재구성하기도 하였다. 또한, 다양한 어휘를 사용한 상상적 내러티브를 통해 이야기의 내용을 더욱 풍성하게 만들기도 하였다. 따라서 그림책을 통한 이야기만들기는 유아에게 이야기를 만들고자 하는 동기를 제공하고, 흥미를 지속시켜 주어 이야기를 창조하여 능동적인 주체로 발전할 수 있는 기회를 제공해 주었다.

The purpose of this study was to explore the meaning of the narratives of young children in creating a story through picture books. Data were collected between October 8th and November 30th, 2018 and the collected data include a research journal and a story note made by young children. The results of the study are as follows. This study finds that the narrative of children is categorized into three different processes: meeting with the main character of the picture book, reproducing the experiences of my life and finding a solution in the story. The young children copied the story of picture books while building their own world of stories. They also reconstructed the contents by connecting their experiences. In addition, they made stories richer through imaginative narratives using various words. Through these studies, creating a story through picture books provided the young children with an incentive to make stories and a chance to develop into story writers by continuing their interests.
