Abstract	The purpose of this study is to investigate how gender roles of women teachers affect their practices in the classrooms. Participants in the study were 75 female teachers working in elementary schools in Adana, Turkey. Findings indicated that gender roles of women teachers have important effects on their educational practices. Women teachers explained how their gender roles affect their profession mostly in terms of "also being a mother" in both positive and negative directions. The main points in teachers' explanations were "being a mother and a spouse", "stress", "close relationships with students and parents" and "lack of authority and issues of confidence". (Contains 6 tables.) (As Provided).
