Qualitative research methods were used through interviews carried out with twenty teachers. The teachers were chosen purposefully according to maximum sampling method. Nvivo2 qualitative data analysis program was used to analyze the data. The findings of the study revealed that the 4th and 5th grade teachers consider themselves competent in using traditional assessment approaches.
