Abstract

Ethnobotanical knowledge portrays the interrelationships between plants and humans. The present study builds on the results of the master's thesis, which sought to understand how the knowledge of medicinal plants is approached in Science teaching, for elementary school. The research refers to a systematic review of a qualitative nature, with a search in the databases of two platforms: Google Scholar and World Wide Science, using the descriptors "medicinal plants" AND "science education*" AND "elementary education", analyzing studies with a temporal cut from the year in which they are available in the databases until the year 2020. The studies involved students from the 6th to the 9th year of elementary school with workshops, production of teaching materials, lectures, practical activities, conversation circles and semi-structured interviews. The analyzed studies approaching values, beliefs and popular knowledge with the teaching of Science and demonstrated the approximation with scientific knowledge, promoting teaching and learning.
