Since 2005, a constructivist education system has been practised in our country. It would not be wrong to say that without knowing the basic principles of the constructivist education and the epistemological approaches based on it, constructivist education could not be practised effectively. The connection between these basic principles and educational approaches is not known well enough by teachers. This causes some troubles in the practice of constructivist education. It is obvious that it would be better if the subject studies in textbooks, student’s books and teacher’s books are given by associating them with the principles mentioned above. The textbooks, student’s books and teacher’s books prepared like this will contribute teachers to accept and practise constructivist education system. In the study, the Social Studies for 6th graders textbook, student’s book and teacher’s book prepared by The Republic of Turkey Ministry of National Education, the studies on constructivist epistemology and educational theory were used. This study which was carried out with document analysis method deals with the subject ‘Who’s come and who’s passed through’ in the unit ‘The Life on the Earth’ of the field study ‘ Humans, Places and Environments’ in Social Studies textbook for 6th graders. Although there are various questions and projects available in accordance with constructivist education in the unit aforesaid, it is not clear in line with which objectives of the constructivist education these techniques were formed. The study aims to present a sample on the subject matter of studying the questions in the unit, teachings and projects more efficiently by associating the constructivist education approach with the principles mentioned above. The links to be established aim to be a guiding light for the teacher to produce new questions and projects.
