Abstract

The present work intends to investigate the possibilities of a didactic approach for teaching local history in the municipality of Buriti dos Montes, state of Piauí, as an important methodology in the process of building awareness of the historical subject. For that, the following specific objectives were followed: to carry out a bibliographical survey on the city's history, among books and academic studies; understand how the teaching of local history interferes in the construction process of the historical subject's consciousness; identify which elements of local history could be addressed in the development of participatory awareness of the historical process in Basic Education students in the city of Buriti dos Montes; propose pedagogical interventions that address local history for Basic Education in the municipality of Buriti dos Montes – PI; develop an activity notebook for use by teachers in their practices in Elementary School I – 5th grade classes, addressing the topic of teaching local history in the municipality of Buriti dos Montes based on surveys on publications dedicated to local history. The information was analyzed taking into account the academic production in the area, gathered through the bibliographical survey, and also by the legislation and guiding documents produced by the public power, such as the National Curriculum Parameters: History (PCN's), the Law of Guidelines and Bases of National Education (LDB), Resolutions and the Curricular Reference, and National Common Curricular Base (BNCC). Through the reflections it was observed that the teaching of History in the early years is a field of study that begins to consolidate itself, but that at times tends to be forgotten or left aside, plus the teacher who, despite the absence of materials didactics, internal and external demands and problems related to initial and continuing education, has adapted through its experience in teaching historical content. The product of this work is the construction of an activity notebook for use by teachers with the aim of assisting in the teaching process - learning about local history in connection with broader approaches to the national and world historical context, based on our teaching experiences and of research, serving as a collaborative basis for the performance of other professors, its discussion, its improvement and possible developments.
