    This study is based on our initial attempt in implementing the new primary curriculum. In doing so, we work closely with a group of public primary school located in Bandung to analyze the underlying principles of Kurikulum 2013. Hence, we will report how to analyze the nature of scientific approach that is considered as closely related to science lesson. In addition, we will report the results of our field study regarding initial teachers‟ reasoning based on interview data. Secondly, we describe our series of discussion with teachers regarding how to design and analyze science lesson in accordance with the new curriculum demand, as well as analysis to science lesson discourse. From such activities we recorded and extracted teachers‟ practical reasoning in response to critical feature of both scientific approach and science lesson. We explicate it in relation to teachers‟ thinking toward science concept and students‟ learning. Finally, we discuss lessons learned and future direction in engaging teachers with critical thinking.
