This article investigates the conceptions of scientific literacy of elementary school science teachers from 6th until 9th of Brazilian elementary school at a city in São Paulo state in the context of continuous formation. The data were collected on the activity of training through a questionnaire with open questions where the teachers’ conceptions were formally collected before and after the execution of activities. As a result, some teachers changed their conception related to the scientific literacy regarding the need of scientific methods, allowing us to the point out the need for further research that address this kind of approach as well as continuing teacher training.
