O Ensino de Ciências Naturais na pandemia de Covid-19: a experiência de professores da rede pública da Cidade de Parintins - AM

Abstract

The year 2020 started with a different approach than usual, which began with the Covid-19 pandemic, which lasted two years. This study aimed to investigate the difficulties that teachers from the public network of Parintins faced in the teaching of natural sciences in the face of the challenge of remote classes imposed by the Covid- 19 pandemic. Eight teachers of natural sciences from elementary schools I and II from the public school system answered a questionnaire to characterize the sample of teachers' difficulties in the four schools involved in the research. It was evident from the results that teachers went through challenges to bring teaching to students, since they had to be removed from the classroom due to social distancing requirements. The lack of preparation of teachers in the face of lack of mastery and knowledge of digital tools and school structure, social, technological and economic inequality were some aspects that became more evident in the research. It was found that even with the great difficulties, there was a joint effort by the school and teachers to reach the largest number of students, especially students who did not have access to the syllabus provided by the teachers.
