This article discusses teacher training to work in Elementary School based on the perceptions of students in two undergraduate courses: one in Biological Sciences and the other in Natural Sciences. The methodology used involves the application of dissertative and multiple-choices questionnaire that allows us to list points of convergence and divergence between the two training paths investigated. For undergraduates, their courses develop the basic knowledge to act as teachers and reinforce their profession choice. On the other hand, they believe that the courses should review their curriculum courses in regard to the approach to disciplinary knowledge. We believe that this discussion is valid to think about training processes that value teaching at this stage of schooling.

Keywords : Elementary School; Natural Sciences; Teacher training.
