Environmental interpretation as a strategy in enviromental education with schoolchildren of primary basic studies at the Agape reserve of the municipality of Leticia (Amazonas)
This document is the result of a work, whose objective was to sensitize students of primary school in grades 4 and 5 of the municipality of Leticia (Amazonas) through the environmental interpretation strategy, on the concept of the environment and the importance of preserving it.
Through the strategy of environmental interpretation that has its basis in a script prepared previously for each path, which included conceptual and metaphorical content, children were sensitized; the activity included sensory experiences, of play, activities of preservation, conservation, that would allow to strengthen their knowledge, allowing the construction of environmental values seeking to generate new patterns of behavior in the face of the environment and modify behavior patterns.
It was concluded that this type of environmental interpretation activities, which includes the participation of all senses in accessible open spaces, allows to generate the curiosity of children to know and explore, beyond their formal classroom knowledge. It is evident that it is not enough to know about environmental problems if it is not known in reality; beyond the knowledge that can be achieved in conventional classrooms.
