The data of the study were collected with a semi-structured interview form, and the obtained data were analyzed using descriptive analysis. As a result of the study, it was seen that all of the primary school teachers used the Life Science textbook. However, the majority of the first and second grade primary school teachers and all third grade teachers who participated in the study stated that they generally found the Life Science textbooks insufficient. In addition, an important part of the primary school teachers stated that the most important feature that should be found or improved in the Life Science textbooks is that the texts are interesting, intriguing, or thought-provoking.
