This article is part of the approaches on the history of school institutions, with a study directed to the training and education practices of women, whose purpose is to contribute to the understanding of the following problem: how was the discipline of Home Economics treated in a notebook of a former student of the Junior High School class at Colégio Estadual Presidente Vargas, located in the city of Dourados, in the state of Mato Grosso, in the early 1970s? Thus, this article seeks to analyze the teaching of Home Economics at Colégio Estadual Presidente Vargas in the city of Dourados, taking as a main source of research a notebook of a former student of the Ginasial Course of the year 1972. The research was developed from the references linked to history, the history of education, the history of women, the history of women's education and the curriculum, as well as based on documentary sources. From the records presented by the former student of the Ginasial Course in the notebook, it was possible to glimpse at part of the teaching process of the discipline of Home Economics, as well as to understand the contents worked and developed for the training and education of women living in the interior of the state of Mato Grosso. However, the notebook as a documentary source revealed that the discipline of Home Economics through its contents aimed at the training and education of young women, as good housewives, women trapped in their domestic chores, good family mothers and, in addition, good financial administrators of their homes.
