Despite the ongoing attempts in Turkey to teach the English language to Turkish citizens so that they can communicate effectively in global contexts, the results reached are much lower than desired. To determine where the mistakes originate, different policies have been followed, course hours and instructional strategies have undergone constant changes. The curriculum which is one of the most important pillars of teaching and learning has been updated according to the principles of the CEFR which deeply affect foreign language teaching in Europe. In this study, the A1 level English teaching curriculum, which was prepared in line with the CEFR principles, was examined based on the CEFR communicative language activities. The learning outcomes included in the curriculum were compared in terms of production, interaction and reception activities, and the alignment of the curriculum to the tenets of the CEFR was revealed.
