Abstract
The purpose of this study is to determine the attitudes of the 5th grade students towards Science and Technology course, their level of misconceptions on the subject of “Heat and Temperature”, and the connection between the attitudes and misconceptions in terms of several variables. The tools used for data collection were “Attitude towards Science and Technology Course Scale” and “Concept Test”. According to the results, attitudes of unsuccessful students are higher than attitudes of middle level and successful students. It is found that misconceptions of students who take extra courses are lower than those who learn only in lessons.
