The purpose of this study was to find out how teachers in primary school implement practical work in their classrooms and what experiences they have of Naturvetenskap och Teknik för Alla (NTA). To find out the answers I used semi structured interviews and a poll inquiry. In the study there were four interviews that were recorded with sound and 31 polls that were done by Survey & Report through Karlstad University. The study refers to prior studies about inquiries and practical works in classroom practice. The study shows that the majority of the teachers in this study work regularly with inquiry in their science teaching. The study also shows that the majority of the group has a positive experience of NTA and appreciates the structure and the opportunity to further educate themselves in the science subjects. The study also shows inquiries outside of what NTA can offer. They are mainly done in biology and physics for example as observations of animal and nature or playground physics where teeters and slides are used to study different physics phenomena.
