This study aims to study the activities of the pre-school teachers aimed at planning the game time, starting andining the game, the roles taken in the game, and the processes of ending the game time. In the study, research models have been used. The work group consists of 14 pre-school teachers who are voluntary and open to cooperation in the Erzurum state centre of the official independent kindergartens. The method of easy-to-accessive sampling has been used for the purpose of determining the work group. The data of the study was collected in the spring period of the 2018-2019 educational year. In the study, the data was obtained through a semi-configured interview form and observation record scheme prepared by the researchers and organized by taking the expert opinion. The observations were carried out in the classes of teachers. Each teacher has been observed two times in the same week. The researchers did not interfere in the classroom environment and teachers' behavior in any way during the observation process. After the observations were completed, discussions with teachers were conducted. The meetings were held in a suitable area in the school environment, taking a date from teachers. The talks lasted between 20 to 30 minutes. The data obtained was analyzed through visual analysis. When the results obtained by teachers from the observations and conversations of the game-time processes were studied together, the responses they gave about the planning of the game-time was not revealed in the observations. The same situation occurred at the end of the game. Teachers were recorded playing with children in the interviews, the responses they took part when they invited, but during the observations, the teachers were not observed playing the game effectively. Teachers talked about the centers often used in their answers. The problems experienced during the game reflected the teachers' warning expressions in the classroom. The teachers were observed in the classroom at the time of play in actions outside the task, which caused them to remain unreacted against the children.
