Abstract In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the PCK components in the chemistry units of middle school science teacher’s guidebooks developed under the 2009 Revised National Curriculum. The analysis of the results revealed that the sub-components of topic-specific strategies, vertical articulation, and lesson objectives were systematically handled in most teacher’s guidebooks. However, subject-specific strategies, assessment methods, and curricular changes were mainly dealt with only in the general guidelines. Experiments and inquiries, assessment questions, and assessment dimensions were lack of constructivist approaches in the aspect of presented contents or forms. Horizontal articulation and knowledge of students were either lacked in relevant content or presented in the form of simple presentation. Concepts and theories accounted for the largest proportion of teachers’ guidebooks, but some of them were beyond appropriate levels. On the bases of the results, the implications for the development of the teacher’s guidebooks are discussed.
