The research was conducted in order to identify the views of the students of 5th grade on context-based learning. The application part of the study was conducted with the participation of 22 students studying in the 5th grade of a secondary school affiliated with the Ministry of National Education in Samsun. In the application, the unit "Change of Material" is carried out with the curriculum prepared for context-based learning based on the 5E learning model. In the curriculum there are stories that contain contexts from daily life. There are 7 questions to be asked by 2 experts for the interview. At the end of the application, there were semi-configured conversations with nine randomly selected volunteer students. Half-configured conversations are recorded with the audio recording device and transcripted in the analysis phase. Imaginary analysis of the data obtained from the interviews was made by grouping the answers given to each question and placed in direct quotes from the student answers. The research results showed that students liked the stories where real life contexts were, that they liked the lessons processed by stories more, that they learned by fun through stories, and that they learned by stories and better. It is also the conclusion that students remember more stories that contain contexts with events that attract interest. The study found that students have a positive attitude towards contextual learning.
