## Abstract
Humans, as social beings, rely on interaction, and in education, fostering social behavior is crucial for elementary school students to collaborate and develop character.This study analyzes the impact of storytelling on the formation of social behaviors such as cooperation, prosocial actions, and empathy among elementary school students.The research aims to examine how fairy tales influence the development of social behaviors, specifically cooperation, prosociality, and empathy, in elementary students.A qualitative approach with experimental testing was employed, involving three classes of 2nd, 4th, and 6th-grade students.Over a twomonth period, students participated in a storytelling program consisting of four sessions.Data were collected through participatory observation and in-depth interviews with teachers and parents.The observations revealed notable improvements in cooperative behavior, such as teamwork in group tasks and shared responsibilities.Prosocial behaviors, including helping peers and sharing resources, also increased.Empathy levels improved, with students offering emotional support to classmates.Interviews with teachers confirmed these positive shifts in student interactions, validating the effectiveness of storytelling in internalizing social values.Using social behavior theory and symbolic interactionism to assess behavioral changes, the study concludes that storytelling effectively enhances social behaviors in elementary school students, with practical implications for character education.
