Abstract

This Work makes a reflection about the geography teaching in a public school situated in Fortaleza. To do such investigation three visits were realizaed with the intention to go deeper in this research. The Present work was developed in the last four months of the year 2017. First we got to know the school and its teacher (José Pires), which is gratuated in geography. Then we tried to understand the pedagogical methods of the same teacher and we watched a geography class. The last thing was a interview with the teacher, in a qualitative research. In the intervirew the teacher talked about his own formation, his profission and his visions about the school and the challenges in a classroom. So we try to understand: the geography historical, an analysis of the paramethers of the curriculum for geography in Brazil and the history of adults education. In this research, we use authros like Callai (1998), Beisiegel (2010) e Araújo (2012). Doing this way the investigation has as intention to know the geography teaching and some other aspects of it.
