Abstract: The teaching of Science from the early years of basic education is fundamental for the development of scientific knowledge, citizenship, and critical thinking. In Brazil, the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) highlights that the study of Science helps students understand themselves, diversity, the processes of evolution and maintenance of life, the material world, natural resources, their transformations and energy sources, as well as our planet in the Solar System and the Universe. However, challenges such as the need to memorize many concepts, the lack of connection with students’ daily lives, the lack of integration with other subjects, and the low participation of students in the classroom hinder the teaching of Science. To overcome these challenges, it is crucial to articulate theory and practice, bringing theoretical concepts closer to students’ experiences. Strategies such as experimentation allow students to understand theory through practical contact with scientific phenomena, developing the ability to investigate and problematize. Additionally, the use of playfulness, with educational games and enjoyable activities, is an effective tool to motivate and facilitate learning, making the process more interactive and engaging. In response to the need for a new perspective on Science teaching, this research proposes an innovative approach, integrating experimentation and playfulness through Didactic Sequences. Applied to a 9th-grade class in Barreira-CE, the Playful-Experimental Didactic Sequence on the Physical States of Matter revealed satisfactory results. Students highlighted the collective engagement and interaction provided by the educational game, making the classes more dynamic and motivating. Experimentation aroused curiosity and an investigative spirit, facilitating the understanding of the content. The methodology proved to be effective, improving class organization, student participation, and the understanding of scientific concepts.
