Thus, in order to better understand this theme, a bibliographic research was carried out on the history of education in Brazil, in which it was inferred that the study of science becomes relevant, as a contribution to the existing traditional teaching methods and in line with guiding documents of the education. It is also intended with this work to show how science can contribute empirically to action in society, and how innovative teaching methods can generate effective learning of science for young people.
