Elaboração de uma sequência didática para o ensino médio envolvendo o tema “plásticos”

Abstract

Plastics are present in almost everything: in packaging, in kitchen utensils, decoration objects, in electronic gadgets, automobiles and airplanes, in sectors such as civil construction and electrical industry, in agriculture and health activities etc. Therefore, it is quite appropriate to use the theme “Plastics” as the guiding thread for educational activities that contribute to education aimed at the aspirations of contemporary society, which complements the integration of the learner into society and its insertion in the world of work. The present work reports the elaboration of a teaching sequence involving the theme "Plastics" with activities that articulate conceptual, procedural and attitudinal contents that relate science, technology, society and environment, and foster the development of skills and abilities in the domains of representation and communication, research and understanding, and sociocultural contextualization.
