N2  - The aim of this research is to determine the comprehension level and to highlight any misunderstandings,covering the concepts of natural disasters including floods amongst grade 6 primary school students who haveundertaken formal education as set in the school curriculum.Quantitative methods have been applied during the research. With the aid of a pilot study, a questionnaire hasbeen developed to determine how well students in geography class have understood the topic of naturaldisasters. The questions in the questionnaire are open ended and have been designed to enable the students towrite as much as they know about the research topic. The prepared questionnaire has been filled out by 100students in grade 6, aged between 11-12 years old, who have been randomly selected from 4 different schools inGûrgentepe, a country of the province of Ordu.Upon the completion of the research it was discovered that the concepts covering the topic of natural disasters,why and how natural disaster occurs, the losses they bring along and how to protect against them were notsufficiently understood amongst the students. Furthermore, it was established that the students had inadequateinformation and could not fully understand the concepts of natural disasters, it was predicted that many hadinfact, misunderstandings about the issues.This research concludes that although the school curriculum has newly added the topic of naturaldisasters, it is recommended to teachers and specialists who prepare the school curriculum toremember that this topic has been issued and educated without success.
