Abstract: The preservation of water resources is important and largely depends on the integrity of the riparian area. In this scenario, understanding this dynamic relationship is fundamental to ensure the availability of resources for future generations, with education being a great ally in spreading new concepts and paradigms related to environmental conservation. In order to assess the impact of playful activities associated with environmental education, this study implemented teaching strategies focused on the preservation of riparian forests and water resources in a rural school. The activities used were a simulation of “musical chairs” and a “fishing game similar to that practiced at June festivals.” To verify the influence of this intervention on the students' concepts and perceptions, a pre-test and a post-test were conducted, with the same questions replicated. Another assessment of the process occurred through the creation of drawings with the purpose of representing the aquatic environment. It is important to note that, as rural students were involved, a more naturalistic concept prevailed, both in the pre-test and post-test. Regarding the inclusion of humans in this system, it was more pronounced in a globalized view, both in the post-test and in the drawings created after the intervention. After the implementation of the actions, it was observed that the students showed a significant change in their interpretations of riparian forests and water resources, and that the activities contributed to the debate and discussion, awakening a more critical perspective on the topic.
