Abstract: This study was carried out in order to search the effects of teaching informative text structures through processual model on the reading comprehension skills of 4th grade students. The research was designed in accordance with experimental model with pre-test-post-test control groups. The study group of the study consisted of 62 fourth grade students who receive their education in 2012-2013 school year in a state school located in the province of Konya, Turkey. Teaching of the informative texts was carried out for 10 weeks based on the processual model in the experimental group, and based on the curriculum of Turkish course in the control group. As data collection tools, Reading Comprehension Test and Awareness Test of Informative Text Structures were used in the research. Mean, standard deviation, unpaired t-test, and one-way analysis of variance were used in the analyses of the study data. Results of the study have revealed that there are significant differences between the reading comprehension levels and awareness of informative text structures on behalf of the experimental group that learned informative texts through processual model.
