ABS272 - Proposing and analyzing activities to approach perfumes in a TLS in Chemistry classes

This work aimed to propose and to analyze the structure in a Teaching Learning Sequence (TLS) on perfumes, taking into account engagement, exploration, explanation, elaboration and evaluation that such activities can promote in Chemistry classroom. We developed a TLS on perfumes, drawn from Méheut ideas (2005), trying to promote teaching and learning in 5 steps according to the phases of the 5E method (Patro, 2008). The results obtained from the following elaboration and analysis of TLS indicate that: it favored an articulated approach for chemical content to the theme perfumes; provides a contextualized approach to different types of content, concepts and scientific phenomena in schools. However, it requires teachers to appropriate integrated approach for chemical and pedagogical knowledge, including issues with social relevance, which requires a degree of complexity to work with design of didactical proposals for science teaching and learning.
