The aim of teaching students their vernacular language is providing them with basic linguistic skills such as comprehending what they listen or read, explaining what they understand in writing or verbally. In this research, pretest and posttest control group experimental design has been used. We have worked with 60 students, in total. In this study, the participants were asked to write stories within the context of directions as pretest during the pre-experiment phase. After this process, we went through the application phase and instructed the experimental group 12 hours of course through drama method, and the control group 12 hours of course through demonstration method. After the lessons were completed, in other words in the post-experiment phase, the directions applied during the pretest were once again applied exactly in the same way and the students were asked to write a story as posttest. In this study, ''Story Evaluation Tool'', developed by the researcher was used as the data collecting tool. Furthermore, t-test was used for analyzing the data
