This study tried to determine how teachers viewed continuity in the English curriculum between elementary and middle school. To achieve this goal, the authors implemented a survey toward 103 teachers and analyzed their quantitative and qualitative responses. While most participants comprehended the English curriculum at their own school level, only a few teachers understood English curricula at other school levels. The study revealed that middle school teachers had only a vague understanding of classroom activity as they had not usually utilized such activities in their daily teaching. Furthermore, the teachers thought negatively about continuity in activity, difficulty, and amount of learning. The results led this study to suggest 35 new questions designed to examine seven factors involved in English teachers’ cognition of continuity of the English curriculum.
