Résumé:
Education plays an important role in the formation of democratic, independent, and creative
citizens. In view of this, the research aimed to work on the didactic potential of the short
film: curupira; saci-pererê and iara, as a tool for teaching Science and Biology in the 8th
grade class of the school EEEF André Vidal de Negreiros, Cuité - PB. The work was
developed in 4 stages and all carried out in October 2023. From the didactic sequence, 90.5%
of the students agreed on the possibility of working with folk legends in the classroom,
together with the science subject. It is concluded that the application obtained satisfactory
results, but that this approach does not aim to replace the textbook, but to assist the teacher in
interdisciplinarity, debates or other activities that he/she wants to develop.
