Abstract

Environmental education is a right to the entire Brazilian population, should be offered both in formal and informal education. Thus, the work in question aims to investigate whether this teaching is actually being offered in basic education schools for this, a survey was conducted in a school inside the city of Victory Mission/RS to check if the teaching environmental education is being offered and if so how the faculty has developed the theme with the students. We also sought to discover if the school has already put some specific project with the environment, and with teachers, how they view their own knowledge on the subject. For these goals could be achieved, there was the application of questionnaires to teachers of the school studied and also an interview with the headmistress. Thus, it appears that environmental education is actually being offered in the school studied, as well as the school has developed its own projects on the subject, moreover, it was noticed that teachers mostly think getting a good knowledge on the subject to move their students, although most of them have not received training in the subject, and not academic or other educational entities. The work was important so that they could better understand how education is taking place in schools, and positive in order to prove that the legislation that guarantees access is actually being fulfilled.
