Uma viagem: eu, o pequeno príncipe e o ensino de Ciências

Abstract

This work aims to investigate my training path in Stages I and II, seeking to elucidate the extent to which the experiences lived in this internship environment contributed to my training and understanding about reading paradidactic books in the early years of elementary school and the its potential to awaken interest in science in the child subject, since during my trajectory in the pedagogy course I realized the importance of awakening science in children, because it is in science, in scientific research that we will find the answers to many things, be it in caring for the planet, the environment, progress in cities, technologies and especially health. At this moment when we were surprised by a pandemic of a virus totally unknown to the scientific community, it shows even more, how much in the sciences we can seek our answers and save lives. And it was in the paradidactic books that I saw a way to involve children in science. These books are usually colorful, with stories aimed at various interesting content for students to read and that certainly some of these subjects will attract the student's attention and that some content can be extracted for science, as well as the book The Little Prince that was the focus of my work. This work is developed in narratives, both from my memories during my journey at the university, my experiences and learning in the course subjects and which aroused my interest in the sciences, as well as what was observed during my journey in schools during internships I, II and also the narratives of teachers Agna Freitas, Ana Valéria and Genira Oliveira, who contributed with their experiences on the use of paradidactic books. So I hope that this work contributes to arouse interest for science in the classroom
