Abstract :The aim of this study is to reveal the effect of third-grade primary school students\\\' cultural schemas on both reading comprehension and listening comprehension skills. The study group of this descriptive survey model research consists of third-grade primary school students. The data collection process of the study was implemented with 48 third-grade primary school students studying in two different classes. The question scale of the Error Analysis Inventory was used to measure both reading comprehension and listening comprehension skills. In the level determination stage of the study, the text Merve\\\'s Diary was used to measure reading comprehension and the text Crack Bucket was used to measure listening comprehension. Baseball and soccer texts were used to examine the effect of cultural schemas on reading comprehension. Similarly, \\\"My Father\\\'s Blanket\\\" and \\\"Just the Way We Are\\\", an illustrated storybook about different family structures, were used to reveal the effect of cultural schemas on listening comprehension. According to the results obtained from the findings of the study, culturally familiar texts were better understood than culturally unfamiliar texts in listening and reading comprehension dimensions. From this point of view, it can be interpreted that cultural schemas have an impact on reading comprehension and listening comprehension.
