GROTO, Silvia Regina  y  MARTINS, André Ferrer P.. THE LITERATURE OF MONTEIRO LOBATO TO DISCUSS NATURE OF SCIENCE ISSUES AT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. Ens. Pesqui. Educ. Ciênc. [online]. 2015, vol.17, n.2, pp.390-413. ISSN 1983-2117.  https://doi.org/10.1590/1983-21172015170206.

In this article, we analyze certain aspects of the views of science presented in three works of Monteiro Lobato's literature. Our aim is to use this material to discuss issues regarding Nature of Science in science classes. The analysis of the works of Reinações de Narizinho, A Reforma da Natureza and A Chave do Tamanho revealed the presence of excerpts associated with the scientific knowledge that have been classified into four categories: scientific language, view of scientist, scientific method and appreciation of science. While the stories bring elements of science views considered inadequate according to some studies from Science Education, we believe that these works could be used at elementary school, especially for questioning the views of science and scientist they provide.

Palabras clave : Monteiro Lobato; Nature of Science; Literature.
