MENEZES, João Paulo Cunha de; FONSECA, Simone Silva da  and  PEDREIRA, Ana Júlia Lemos Alves. A theoretical analysis of the water theme in some PNLD Biology textbooks 2018. Ensino em Re-Vista [online]. 2020, vol.27, n.3, pp.1155-1180.  Epub Dec 11, 2020. ISSN 1983-1730.  https://doi.org/10.14393/er-v27n3a2020-16.

Water is a limited resource that requires care. The generalist approaches present in the textbooks may seem distant from the reality of the student, so it is important to contextualize and enrich them. Thus, this work aimed to analyze the textbooks of Biology suggested by the National Program of Books and Didactic Material 2018, seeking to learn how the knowledge on the theme "Water Resources" are presented and are related to the environmental theme. The results found were positive, since they indicate that textbooks are instruments that can assist teachers and students in learning, but require a support material as a sensitizing tool, due to the fact that the textbooks do not have a detailed approach on the water issue, which awakens participation and reflection on the use of water and ways to minimize the impact human being on the exploration of this resource.

Keywords : Water crisis; National Program of the Book and Didactic Material; Schoolbooks.
