Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to present the specificity and role of things in everyday work of teachers of practical vocational training. The analysis of qualitative research results allowed to notice the great importance of things in the daily work of vocational school teachers. A teacher deprived of access to things would experience great difficulties in providing students with practical skills: they are an indispensable link in the teaching-learning process.Things can endanger the lives and health of both teachers and students.In addition, they are often an additional element for which the teacher bears responsibility in class. Properly equipping a school with things and tools determines its prestige, and things constitute an element of competition between schools. Some can even perform a disciplinary role.
