The research method was categorical content analysis, and the unit of analysis was sentence and theme. The measurement tool was a reverse questionnaire and a researcher-made checklist, and selective, axial,and open coding and maxqda software were used to analyze the data. The results showed that the mental and spiritual health components are not mentioned in the science textbook of the fourth and fifth grades among the health curriculum components, including physical, mental, environmental,social, and spiritual health. All the components of a health curriculum were mentioned in the science textbook of the sixth grade.
