Data which were determined by pre-service teachers writings were coded as true, false and blank, and they were analyzed. Findings regarding the level’s of relating daily lives to the scientific knowledge revealed that pre-service teachers were considerably able to relate their physics knowledge to their daily lives. They were also able to relate their chemistry knowledge to their daily lives partially, but the level of this relation was relatively lower than that of physics knowledge.
