Quilombola community, Marajó.Resumo
This article is the result of a project developed with children in the Marajó region of Pará, more specifically in the quilombola community of Boa Vista, located in the municipality of Salvaterra. The central question of the research sought to answer: what are the understandings of the children of the quilombola community of Boa Vista about nature, but specifically about rain and sun? The objective of the research is to listen to the children's understandings, their interpretations about the elements of nature in the Marajó quilombola community. The research is anchored in a qualitative approach with a bibliographic and field research type. The techniques used were: conversation circles with the children, listening meetings, games and activities in different spaces, at school and in the community. The results indicate that the children have their own understandings, their own knowledge concerning the elements of nature, specifically the moon and the sun, and the importance of referencing their knowledge for the production of knowledge and the protagonism of the children.
