Popis: The aim of this study is to determine undesirable student behaviors that primary school teachers encounter within the framework of classroom management and to determine their solutions to these undesirable student behaviors. In the research, descriptive survey model was used in accordance with the nature of qualitative research selected as the method. The research was carried out in the province of Aydın, Türkiye in the spring semester of the 2021-2022 Academic Year. The participants of the study, for which ethical conventions are followed, consist of a total of 12 primary school teachers, each of whom is represented by at least three primary school teachers from lower, middle and upper social economic levels. The selection of the study group was made with reference to the maximum diversity sampling, one of the sampling techniques. The opinions of the participants were collected with the help of a semi-structured interview form and the data obtained from the interviews were analyzed using content analysis method. In line with the data collected and analyzed by 2 researchers, the findings were shared within the scope of 6 themes. As a result, while it was determined that undesirable behaviors in classroom management were mostly caused by students, individual learning speed and friend relations, it was determined that these result from the factors pertaining to the environment, friends, technology use and family. Although the participants appeared to have various coping methods for undesirable behaviors, they stated that there exist responsibilities especially of parents, school staff and students in order to eliminate and minimize the relevant problems.
