Information and communication technology (ICT) occupies an important place in the system of education in modern times. The curricula for primary school dictate the inclusion and use of ICT in teaching and learning, as well as the development of digital competence among primary school students. Both of these can be achieved, among other things, through the use of digital learning materials and e-textbooks. As part of the project LIFE NATURAVIVA – Biodiversity art of life, the Triglav National Park has designed its own educational portal, Triglavska zakladnica, which collects digital learning materials. In our master's thesis, we wanted to determine to what extent the educational content of the educational portal is aligned with the curricula for compulsory primary school subjects, with an emphasis on natural science, geography and society subjects. We conducted a qualitative analysis of selected curricula in terms of content, anticipated forms and methods of pedagogical work, and procedural knowledge, and we quantitatively evaluated the results. We found that the educational portal is aligned with the curricula of thirteen primary school subjects, primarily with the subjects of learning the environment, natural sciences and technology, natural sciences, geography, biology and social sciences. The educational portal's content is suitable for all grades of primary school. A disadvantage of the educational portal is that it insufficiently supports the development of scientific processes and skills envisaged by the curricula.
