The purpose of this article is to present and discuss a proposal for Probability Teaching involving the minesweeper game. This proposal the perspective of qualitative research. It has two activities that start from the appreciation of the experimentation process, from the concern with the development of probabilistic thinking and logical reasoning. The first activity presented and discussed focuses on four possible moves to be analyzed. Through the information offered in the activity command, it is expected to lead to the conclusion that the best possible move is move D. In this activity, the concept of Probability is not formally defined, but through experimentation, empirically. In the second proposed activity, a possible approach to the concept of events and their classifications within the scope of Probability is evidenced. In the second activity, the notion of relative frequency is also explored. After presenting each activity, a discussion of the conceptual and procedural aspects present in each of them is carried out. It should be noted that this proposal is presented to contribute to teacher training spaces and also to the teaching and learning processes of Probability and Statistics in High School.
