SILVEIRA, Alessandro Frederico da; ATAIDE, Ana Raquel Pereira de  e  FREIRE, Morgana Lígia de Farias. Atividades lúdicas no ensino de ciências: uma adaptação metodológica através do teatro para comunicar a ciência a todos. Educ. Rev. [online]. 2009, n.34, pp.251-262. ISSN 0104-4060.

We are living the first decade of the XXI century without being able to successfully socialize knowledge. To solve this problem, the scientific divulgation appears as a way to communicate science, beyond the formal educational space. On this perspective, this work has the goal of showing that we can teach and disseminate science in a more engaging, interactive and pleasant way making use of theater. Thus we report two experiments in this object of research which occurred during the years 2004 and 2005 in some events of scientific divulgation: "The troupe of magic" and "The cycle of water". We concluded that theater can be the starting point to attract interest, disseminating information and popularizing science knowledge, by playful activities enabling a better "reading of the world" and consequently decreasing the scientific illiteracy that still exists in our country. In spite of the complexity that this type of work demands, considering the social and didactic aspects involved in scientific divulgation, we believe that our results are rewarding.
