This research aims to determine the teachers’ views about the implementation of the cooperative learning method in the sixth grade mathematics curricula which started to be implemented in the 2006-2007 academic year. Participants were 101 sixth grade mathematics teachers who were randomly selected from the elementary schools in Eskişehir. Data were collected by a questionnaire which was developed by the authors. Percentage, frequency tables, Mann- Whitney U and Kruskal Wallis tests were used in the process of data analysis. It was found that there were no significant differences in terms of the variables of gender and experience of teachers, but there were significant differences in terms of the variables of the school the person graduated, having education about the cooperative learning method, having education about the 6th grade mathematics curricula and being interested in the editions about mathematics. These findings show that mathematics teachers were open to use alternative learning methods like cooperative learning in the sixth grade mathematics curricula
