LORENZETTI, Leonir  and  DELIZOICOV, Demétrio. SCIENTIFIC LITERACY IN THE EARLIER SERIES CONTEXT. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2001, vol.3, n.1, pp.37-50. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172001030104.

The contribution of nature science teaching on earlier series of the fundamental education for the student's literacy process is analyzed. A bibliographical rescue of the works developed in Brazil, on the two last decades, about the subject, as well as, those produced in several countries talking about scientific literacy, propitiated the establishment of a comprehension for the scientific literacy process to be worked on earlier series. It's emphasized that the scientific literacy is a perpetual activity, being systematized at the scholastic space, but transcending its proportions to informal educational places, permeated for different media and speeches. It's presented a programming structure where some didactic-methodological initiatives take place, they can, allied with the appropriation of the student's written code, contribute on the scientific literacy process that needs to occur at the fundamental education circuit.
