The present work is a research carried out with teachers that work at the early years of elementary school, with the main goal of investigating how the Pampa biome is presented in their classes. The methodology followed in this study was a qualitative approach, carried out in three state public schools in the RS state. Data were collected through a semi-structured questionnaire, and Content Analysis and the Word Cloud Technique were used for the analysis. Subsequently, a study was carried out on the approach of the Pampa biome in the textbooks, indicated in the PNLD 2016 of the initial years. Regarding the analysis of the questionnaires, the results infer that the teachers perform a simplified and little contextualized approach about the Pampa biome in their classes. The justifications presented in the responses refer to the fact that this theme is not included in the schools' study plan. Regarding the analysis carried out in the PNLD 2016 textbooks, it was observed that there are several collections available for the choice of teachers, however only five collections presented the contextualization of the theme Pampa biome. It is also noteworthy the use of different methodological resources by teachers, aiming at improving teaching processes. In this sense, it is believed that discussions focused on the contents related to the Pampa biome can significantly contribute for students to learn, even in the early years, the importance of these ecosystems and develop attitudes aimed at the preservation and maintenance of the Pampa's biodiversity.
