According to the results of the study, primary school teachers find somestages in learning – teaching process prescribed in the curriculum unnecessary andtherefore do not apply them. Teachers mentioned that some texts are above the studentlevel; and they sometimes experience time and material problems. It was seen in thepresent study that teachers do not have enough information about learning and teachingprocess in the new curriculum; they do not have high success levels in the applications;and they usually do not apply the forms for evaluating the process in the curriculum.
