Abstract

Based on the reality of Emergency Remote Teaching experienced between the years 2020 and 2021 due to the Covid-19 pandemic and the constant contact of students with scientific denialism in this context, it is problematized: What is the importance and challenges of Science teaching for Elementary School during the pandemic? And, the objective is to analyze academic productions on the importance and challenges of teaching Science in Elementary School during the pandemic, as well as the National Curricular Common Base (BNCC). From the articles analyzed, it was possible to observe that there were several challenges faced by Science teachers during the pandemic, especially regarding the use of technologies and the participation of students in classes. But this was also an interesting moment for teachers to improve in terms of teaching methodologies related to ICTs, in addition to the fact that the context reinforced the importance of teaching Science so that students can interpret the world in which they live, which is one of the objectives of the teaching of this discipline observed in the BNCC, which is a mandatory curricular document that guides the curriculum of public and private education, which presents general and specific competences to guide the teaching and learning process. Therefore, the present work demonstrates the need to invest in the preparation of Science teachers regarding the use of technologies in the teaching and learning process, as well as the importance of Science for the critical and active formation of students.
