Opis

The Caatinga biome is the exclusive morphoclimatic domain of Brazilian territory, most of which is found in the Northeast region. In addition, this ecosystem is important due to its diversity of fauna and flora, as well as its variety of endemism. However, this biome is little known scientifically, as well as having high rates of degradation. The school environment therefore plays an important role in providing meaningful knowledge about the particularities of this biome. In addition, providing contextualized knowledge is essential, as it can encourage students to develop practices to value and care for the Caatinga. In this way, methodological diversification when approaching the Caatinga biome can contribute to the teaching and learning process. Therefore, the use of educational games as pedagogical tools is fundamental for a meaningful learning process, as it enables the construction of significant knowledge about the Caatinga biome, contributing to its appreciation, as well as practices for preserving this ecosystem.
