Abstract

Abstract :

One of the objectives of this research was to know the effect of story method with using pictures to remember concepts inside the of the kindergarten children in Koya city, as well as several other secondary objectives.

The researchers used experimental method as a partial control and with a pretest and post-test. The parity between the two groups of the experimental were occurred among those variables that may affect the results of the experiment like (sex, chronological age in months, the educational level of the father and mother, test remember concepts, lessons distribution, duration of the experiment), and the extraneous variables also controlled in terms of the internal integrity of the design and external safety. The researchers used observation (check list) as a tool to measure remembering of the concepts. The Face Validity and Content Validity was found, and also reliability of measurement were found through coefficient of correlation (Pearson) in the statistical package (SPSS) It was (.807) at the level of significance (0.003) and was a strong statistical significance. 

Results did not showed a statistically significant between the experimental group (which tells them stories using images) comparing to the control group (which tells them stories without using images) by remembering the concepts of the stories, also the results did not show a statistically significant between the experimental members related to the variable of sex, also the results did not show any statistically significant among members of the control group due to variable sex. Based on the results of this research, the researcher presented a number of recommendations and suggestions.
