This research was done to determine the level of 6 , 7 , 8 year primary school and 1 class high school students and the candidates of science teachers for relating science with their daily life.The search was executed by prepearing tests for relating science subjects with daily life, practicing and estimating them to the students of 6 , 7 , 8 year primary school and 1 year high school students and the candidates of science teachers in various schools in Ankara city centre in 2006-2007 school years. The test prepeared for pilot study was practiced to total 106 person of 8 year students.

By this search, the differences are seen between the class level and the level of relating science with daily life. It is determined that 8 year of primary school students are more successful, and the test avarage of 9 year students even is lower than the students of second rank. Beside this, a meaningful relation is not found between the student success of relating the science with daily life and gender factor.Furthermore, as a result at the research it is determined that the 6 year primary and 1 year high school students are successful in biology; and 7 and 8 year students with the candidates of science teachers are succesful in physics in terms of relating them with their everyday life.
