the study. Content analysis and descriptive analysis techniques were used to
obtain of the results of the study. It has been understood from the
observations that students could not understand science teachers’ statements
while they were in science lesson. Science teachers stated the reasons of
students’ failure in science that students do not know Turkish well (20%), they
do not belong themselves to Turkey (20%), economic conditions (13,33%) and
negative school climate (13,33%). Students pointed out some factors of their
failure in science that they are language problems (11,66%), their family can
not help to them within science course (11,66%) and so on. It can be
