This paper presents an analysis conducted on the relationship established by the teacher with knowledge in the teaching activity, in the initial grades of elementary education in public schools. It was possible to verify that the interviewed teachers establish a utilitarian and superficial relationship, either with scientific knowledge or with the knowledge on school subjects. This type of relationship is caused by the kind of learning developed in moments of initial or continued formation and related to its practical applicability, as well as by what the teaching activity provides and demands from the teachers in their daily work. Moreover, the valorizing of knowledge acquired with the experience is highlighted.

Keywords : Teaching Activity; Teachers’ Formation; Teachers’ Knowledge; Knowledge.
