A conscientização ambiental por meio da música e dos recursos audiovisuais na Comunidade de Flexeira, Tracuateua-Pará

Abstract

Before the first dialogues on the preservation of the environment, environmental awareness was born, exercising its concept linked to environmental education, presented as a result of educational actions. Environmental awareness is an act of building the new paradigm of human consciousness, that is, it is a new garb given to the archaic thoughts that humanity has built for centuries. Through this context and taking into account the use of resources that stimulate auditory, visual and sensitive perceptions, this paper aims to raise awareness among elementary school children about the preservation of migratory birds in the Amazonian school context. The present research was developed in view of a panorama of the historical context of the study community and the migratory birds that reproduce in the locality, together with activities of environmental awareness, dividing between four stages: living, interviews, audiovisual resource and parody in education environment and the sound tour in early childhood education. The study site is located in the community of Flexeira, belonging to the municipality of Tracuateua - Pará, Bragantina microregion. The experience generated as a main result the life rhythm of the citizens of Flexeira and the understanding of the local economic dynamics, which revolves around fishing, agriculture, livestock and commerce. The interviews presented as results the origin of the name of the community that is related to an grass similar to an arrow, denominated "grass flexa". The age of the community was estimated to be 200 years, with the Sátiro and Carneiro families being the pioneers in the founding of the community, and also showing the relationship between the birds and the lake and the community. The first activity of applied awareness showed the combination of the audiovisual resource with the parody contest, exposing extremely positive results, and consequently the learning about migration, preservation, construction of critical awareness and socio-environmental identity. In the parodies terms were used that served as feedback of the activity, for example, "Flexeira", "migration", "Taquiri and Arapapá", besides the representativeness of understanding the construction of musical parodies. As for the second activity, the new experience for the students was extremely receptive, mainly due to the fact that the classroom exits, this activity reinforced even more the awareness and values acquired by the students, generating as return, drawings that represented the sound landscape and phrases to the community in front of the local soundscape. However, the work achieved its objectives, successfully acquiring environmental awareness through educational tools, as well as all the traditional knowledge acquired for the work environment.
