We analyzed the scientific leaning contents at primary education in Mozambique, comparing to Japanese primary science education. We categorized the learning units about science in the curriculum guideline for Mozambique's primary education in 2017 into seven content domains, "scientific methodology", "physics (energy)", "chemistry (substance/particle)", "biology (life)", "earth science (earth)", "technology and industry" and "healthy and safety life" according to their learning topics. We also tabulated the number of class hours allocated to each unit. As a result, the class hours for teaching "healthy and safety life" with "technology and industry" are found to account for about two third of all class hours, while learning topics about "physics (energy)", "chemistry (substance/particle)" and "earth science (earth)" of Mozambique are quite less than those of Japan. The present primary science curriculum of Mozambique is found to be biased qualitatively and quantitatively towards teaching knowledge necessary for daily life rather than learning correct scientific concepts.
