RESUMO:

Environmental Education (EA) plays a fundamental role in raising awareness among individuals, by promoting understanding of the interactions between human beings and theenvironment, sensitizing them to socio-environmental problems resulting from the unrestrained exploitation of natural resources. In Brazil, EA is supported by law, which highlights its interdisciplinary and transversal character. However, the implementation of EA in the educational context still faces many challenges, including teacher training and the lack of adequate educational resources. Therefore, this work aims to develop teaching strategies through the development of teaching materials for the implementation of Environmental.Education in elementary school II. The research sought relevant aspects of reality, focused on understanding and explaining social dynamics and presents itself with a qualitative approach.Participatory research was used as a methodological procedure, carrying out an intervention in the school locus, initially with teachers who teach from 6th to 9th grade and, later, with students from an 8th grade class. The following procedures were used as data collection instruments:questionnaire, observation and word cloud. To analyze the results, Bardin's content analysis technique was used and it was found that teachers understand the importance of developing EE activities in the school context, however 80% of the public surveyed work EE only through of projects, science fair or commemorative dates, compromising the function established by the educational documents. Among the challenges listed by teachers is the lack of initial and/or continuing training, as well as the lack of adequate materials to work on the topic, such as time to prepare classes and build materials. With regard to students, it was found that some had pre-existing knowledge of EA and showed an understanding of environmental problems. Through the development and use of teaching materials, students demonstrated interest in handling them,as well as demonstrating the interrelationship between pre-existing knowledge and new knowledge, expanding their EE concepts significantly. In this way, the teaching material constitutes an important instrument in the process of teaching and learning EE, by contributing as strategies in the methodology of the basic education teacher, making it possible to improve practice, since, when using practical, playful, interactive materials and accessible in EA teaching, it stimulates student learning, forming individuals concerned with environmental problems and who seek the conservation and preservation of the environment.
