The aim of this study is to examine the contribution data learning area general objectives mathematics curriculum. was designed with case study, which one qualitative research designs. A total 160 students from 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th grades were asked open-ended question in order determine purposes teaching After answers given by read analyzed one, field aims education tried be supported student words. relationships between curriculum target behaviors determined. As a result research, it determined that there each primary school teaching. Although an important basic area, seen not enough importance our country. view leads (a) collection: sourcing habit knowledge generation, (b) organization: identifying critical aspects forming concepts, (c) presenting data: synthesizing generalizing, (d) analysis: comparing problem solving emerges.
