This paper addresses primary school teachers' challenges in teaching science and provides practical strategies for overcoming the obstacles. Science education plays a crucial role in developing critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and scientific literacy, which are essential for students in the 21st Century. However, teaching science in primary schools can often be hindered by a lack of resources, teacher training, and student engagement. This paper will explore the current research on these challenges and provide evidence-based strategies for overcoming them. By implementing these strategies, teachers can create an environment that promotes student engagement and supports their learning of science.
