The teaching of Biology has found it difficult to fulfill its objective of taking students to learn satisfactorily, especially in relation to some content considered more complex. In order to overcome this problem, some pedagogical practices can be effective, such as the use of didactic sequences. The objective of this research was to evaluate the effectiveness of a didactic sequence with practical and playful methodology as a facilitator of teaching and learning the anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system. The approach was qualitative and consisted of applying a didactic sequence as a way to mediate the teaching-learning process. Data collection was based on systematic observations, in addition to the application and analysis of semi-structured questionnaires. The research was carried out with 44 students from a vocational school in the state public school in the city of Tauá, Ceará. The didactic sequence was structured in three pedagogical moments, using varied methodological strategies, such as games, animations and practical activities. The analysis of the data revealed that the methodology provided an expressive gain in the learning of the approached content, favoring the involvement, the participation and the interest in the classes. It was possible to conclude that the didactic sequence presented great potential as a facilitator of learning, being confirmed its effectiveness in approaching the teaching of anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system.
