KAWAMOTO, Elisa Mári  and  CAMPOS, Luciana Maria Lunardi. Histórias em quadrinhos como recurso didático para o ensino do corpo humano em anos iniciais do ensino fundamental. Ciência educ. [online]. 2014, vol.20, n.01, pp.147-158. ISSN 1516-7313.

Teaching resources involve different elements used to support the organization of teaching and learning. Among these are the comic books, involving visual aspects, both cognitive and creative, that provide an alternative way to complement the lectures. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a comic book entitled “Human Body”, focusing on the circulatory, digestive, nervous and respiratory systems, to provide an alternative resource for the teaching of the content in the initial years. The material was evaluated with students of the 5th year of elementary education at a public school in the state of São Paulo, through the use of questionnaires. The comic book proved to be valid as a complementary teaching resource for learning in students, enabling reflection on the relevance of the development and use of comics to science education in the initial years.

Keywords : Elementary School; Health; Teaching Resource; Science Teaching; Comic Book.
