Sustainable Pedagogical Practices

Integrating Environment And Learning

Abstract

This study presents a sustainable pedagogical experience carried out in a public school with 5th-grade students, aiming to integrate environmental education into interdisciplinary learning. The activities included recycling workshops, a school garden, and the construction of toys with reusable materials, as well as field trips to observe local ecosystems. The results showed increased student engagement and understanding of sustainability, promoting changes in attitudes towards waste disposal and environmental preservation. Active student participation fostered meaningful learning and the development of socio-environmental skills. Furthermore, the inclusion of families in the process strengthened community awareness. It is concluded that the adoption of sustainable pedagogical practices should be expanded in the school environment, contributing to the formation of more responsible citizens committed to environmental preservation.
