Description

Recent studies on astronomy teaching, considering the Brazilian context, have pointed out problems that make it impossible for students to learn. Among those, the area of teacher training stands out above all, and its real difficulties in developing the teaching of Astronomy. In this way, we seek in this paper to present a study developed in a Brazilian school about the implementation of a project aimed at the study of astronomical concepts for children. To do so, we start with theoretical-methodological assumptions and present some of the results obtained in the three-year period of the project.
