Construindo planos de aula para o ensino básico das escolas de Santarém (PA): o que é arqueologia? o que é arte rupestre?

Abstract

After archaeological surveys, Santarém (PA) was considered the oldest city in the Amazon region, but due to basic education being somewhat restricted to post-colonial contexts, this archaeological information is limited to the university walls. In this sense, the project was designed to enhance teaching strategies and develop educational activities within the field of heritage education and specifically in schools in the region. For a long time, Monte Alegre and Santarém (PA) have been centers of archaeological research that are in constant development. It is always important to promote the protagonism of communities with archaeological potential, and give them the power to understand and to appropriate their own stories, including them in the program content for basic education teachers. However, it is essential to work on scientific dissemination, thinking about the universities tripod, teaching-research-extension, this is why this introduction to archeology and rock art sites was thought of. With the support of experimental archaeology, methods for manufacturing paints in natural ways are proposed to work in the classroom in a dynamic and inclusive way among students. The current phase of the research includes also the use of a lesson plan that consists of using materiality and rock art to exemplify how they can relate to students' daily lives and bring students closer to the University, in addition to promoting an inclusive social environment that provides students with interaction with archaeological knowledge at school.
