A tilização do lúdico e da experimentação nas aulas de ciências do 6° ano do ensino fundamental

Abstract

Playful activities and experimentation are of great importance in the educational process, regardless of the subject. In the case of the Science curriculum, in the 6th grade class, these elements, when they combine knowledge with fun and practical application, make lessons more attractive and diverse, thus attracting students' attention. In view of the above, the general aim of this study was to identify the benefits of using play and experimental activities in science lessons in the teaching and learning process of 6th grade students. It was carried out through an exploratory, bibliographic and qualitative study based on different materials published on Google Scholar and the SCIELO Virtual Library, where 13 papers were selected, within the time frame of the years 2008 to 2023. The data obtained shows that these resources present themselves as possibilities for traditional teaching and lectures, which give little priority to the role of the student. Their effects are therefore positive, as they make classes more interesting. In the end, it can be inferred that these are activities with great potential for stimulating learning and making it more meaningful.
