For this purpose, planned classroom practices of five teachers in a private primary school were observed, and then the same teachers were interviewed. Additionally, the learning objectives of the preschool curriculum in 2013 are examined. Teacher observation and interview forms are used to collect the data. Descriptive content analysis is conducted using “QSR NVivo 10” and “Microsoft Excel 2010” software in the analysis of the research data.
