Abstract

The relationship between teacher and student is essential for the teaching and learning process in the classroom. The affective relationship can influence this process in a very significant way. This work has the purpose of investigating how affectivity can influence the student's learning in relation to teaching science in the final years of elementary school in the municipality of Valença do Piauí. For this study a field research of investigative and exploratory character was carried out in seven (n = 07) schools offering elementary education. In these schools, classes (n = 11) were observed with a specific guideline and a questionnaire was applied to some teachers (n = 11). The results showed that patience and affectivity are two fundamental factors in the classroom that trigger a good relationship and consequently an affection between both parties. Through the research carried out, it is possible to verify that affectivity is essential for educational performance, but it is still necessary a production of new looks for the teacher-student relationship in order to enhance teaching and learning.
