The research was designed in qualitative model and interview method was preferred for data collection in this context. The study group consisted of 10 teachers and interviews were conducted face to face and individually. In the interviews, semi-structured interview form prepared by the researchers was used as data collection tool. In the first stage, the interview form was presented to three experts (1 Turkish education, 1 classroom education and 1 measurement and evaluation specialist). Interviews were recorded with the help of voice recorder and the participants were coded between K1 to K10 before analyzing the data. Descriptive analysis was conducted on the data obtained from the teachers and themes and codes were created within this scope. In the research, it was seen that the data obtained through interviews were collected under two main themes and six sub-themes. The first main theme was focused on the problems experienced by the primary school teachers who have Syrian students in their classrooms during the initial literacy process, and in this context, it was seen that “problems encountered in instruction dimension”, "student-originated problems”, and “problems arising from social environment" sub-themes emerged. The second main theme focuses on the suggestions of teachers to improve the initial literacy process, and in this context, it was seen that "suggestions on planning”, "suggestions for instruction methods, techniques and materials”, and "suggestions for teacher education" sub-themes emerged.
