Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the level of relationship between the attitudes of 3rd-grade primary school students toward Life Studies lessons and their critical thinking tendencies. The correlational survey model, which is one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. The sample of the study consists of 401 "3rd-grade students" in the academic year 2021-2022. The study group was selected using the convenience sampling technique. "Life science lesson and students' attitudes scale" and "Critical thinking tendency scale for primary school students" were used to collect research data. The data obtained from the scales were analyzed using SPSS 22.00 statistical software. Normality distributions were examined to determine the test techniques to analyze the data. For this purpose, Kolmogrov-Smirnov, histogram graph, skewness, and kurtosis values were examined. As a result of the research, it was observed that the critical thinking tendencies of the 3rd-grade primary school students were higher than the attitudes of the Life Studies lesson and there was a low level, positive and significant relationship between them.Keywords: Critical Thinking, Life Studies, Primary School.
