The study aimed to determine the views of gifted students on the units on "Matter and Its Nature" using the EPTS Curriculum Model. The data was collected from four gifted 6th graders. Semi-structured interviews and diaries were analyzed thematically. Findings showed that students had positive thoughts about the unit. They stated that the lessons were taught with modeling, experimentation, computer-assisted simulation. They enjoyed learning these lessons. The students stated that they did not like the traditional education system in formal education, but they found the lessons taught in this context interesting. The fact that the students found the science courses created using this model effective and enjoyable. It shows that the stakeholders can teach science concepts more effectively and permanently by using this model. teachers should definitely use this model in their lessons, and researchers should also carry out studies where they can adapt the curriculum model to other units.
