Curso de formação continuada para aulas de ciências nos anos iniciais do fundamental – em uma abordagem investigativa

Abstract

This work is an educational product, the result of research carried out during the Professional Master's course in Education for Science and Mathematics at the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Goiás - IFG - Campus Jataí. With the aim of proposing training for elementary school teachers, this 40-hour course aims to enable teachers to get to grips with the SEI - Sequence of Teaching by Investigation, and to carry out teaching by investigation activities in their classrooms. The course consists of 14 face-to-face and non-face-to-face meetings. They are described below: from the 1st to the 4th meeting, the theoretical part of the course was read and reflected on, covering the foundations and initial concepts relevant to teaching science through investigation. From the 5th to the 10th meeting, the SEI (Sequence of Teaching by Investigation) was worked on, based on Anna Maria Pessoa de Carvalho's methodology, with the development of experimental practices. From the 11th to the 14th meeting, an analysis was made of the textbook adopted for 2023: “A Conquista - Ciências” by Editora Ática, for the Early Years of Primary School, and the teachers prepared and applied investigative activities, as well as evaluation and final considerations by the teachers.
