examines, reflects, relates his story and shall give their findings. The students will be encouraged to:

Participate in collective games with cognitive challenges;
Watch and discuss educational films in the search for collective solutions;

which they live;
Express knowledge and values through contact with alternative materials and collective
challenges, generating possibilities for experimentation with new techniques and search for
solutions.



Project Integrators Axes
GREEN SCHOOL: EDUCATION, HEALTH AND
SOCIETY



Axis 1 - Interdisciplinary
Based on LDB and PCN becomes fundamental social responsibility work aimed at understanding by
educating the issues that affect your life, the community you live in, your country and, above all, the planet
Earth. Thus, this axis will be critical to integrate the contents of other axes, throwing hand approaches
below:

Approaches:
• Problem-based learning as teaching tools;
• Concept map as a tool for teaching and learning.



Axis 2 – Sustainability and Biodiversity
The comparison of sustainable practices among the national and international reality shows that there is
an alignment with global initiatives, but with many challenges ahead (MMA, Res. CONAMA
01/86).
The Brazil has an odd role when subject is the biological diversity. He is the holder of the world's
greatest biodiversity.
The promotion of environmental education should be a goal. So we can ensure the preservation and
enhancement of biodiversity, which is a heritage for all mankind.

Approaches:
•Relationship with symbols (media → school →life);
•Environmental education: Experiences of everyday life for teaching;
•Raise awareness/Learning;
•Contribution and changes: group, individual, citizen.



Axis 3 - Health & Society
Taking the education as a dialogical process, which aims to construction of critical consciousness about
being and being in the world (AERTS, et al. 2004), makes necessary several attempts of pedagogical
alternatives aimed at improving integrative consciousness among the pillars of public health and
environment, with the aim of prioritizing and aggregating quality of life communities targets of these
strategies.

Approaches:
• Teaching in health;
• Diseases such as: Dengue fever, toxoplasmosis and Leptospirosis
