The purpose of the study is to investigate how programming connected to the technical subject in primary school is carried out by the teacher and is perceived by the pupils. The study has been presented on the basis of the questions of what are the teachers' intentions with implementing programming in technology teaching, and how do the teacher's pupils perceive the teaching in programming? The study was conducted with qualitative interviews with both a teacher in the technical subject who had been teaching pupils in programming, and groups of this teachers’ pupils. A phenomenographic analysis model was used during the processing of collected data during the interviews. The result of the study shows that the technology teacher has a positive attitude towards programming’s place in teaching and considers it an important part of the pupils' education. The pupils’ express interest in teaching in programming, with a varied view of the degree of difficulty and depends on a more theoretical starting point.
