• Abstract:

  The research intended to report the use of food as auxiliary didactic-pedagogical materials in the learning of students from 4 (four) classes of the 1st year of the Integrated High School of CEFET – MG (Federal Center of Technological Education of Minas Gerais), Campus I – Belo Horizonte – MG, in the Geography discipline, in the teaching of key concepts of Geology and Geomorphology. Among the many noticeable problems in the teaching of Geography, there is an impasse in the assimilation of some themes that demand a better appreciation of existing structures in nature, sometimes, the resources used are not always efficient for understanding to take place. So, we opted for a didactic-pedagogical vehicle (food) that associated curiosity, literal pleasure with “gustatory”, collective discussion and teaching-learning by analogies.
