SUMMARY:

The social dynamics is related to the advancement of science and technology, so there is a need to democratize access to scientific and technological knowledge beyond the preparation of young people for the world of work.  Under this view, Scientific Literacy under the aegis of the BNCC is a relevant discussion, bringing the need for Continuing Education of Teachers to develop activities that corroborate with the integral formation of the learner, overcoming the memorization of content often worked in a decontextualized way. The present research aimed to investigate the limits and possibilities of a continuing education in the perspective of Scientific Literacy in the light of the BNCC for science teachers in the final years of elementary school. To do so, we chose to use a qualitative approach, in order to obtain a broader view regarding the object of research. We analyzed the official document of the BNCC in its final version approved and published in 2017. The data were analyzed in the light of the relevant theoretical framework and from some elements of Bardin's Content Analysis (2016). With the categories that emerged, we structured and planned and carried out the processes of continuing education with science teachers in order to identify the possible contributions and limitations of the training process from the perspective of scientific literacy in light of the BNCC. After the formative processes, narrative interviews were conducted with three science teachers from the São Lourenço da Mata municipal education network who participated in the formative processes. The narrative interviews were categorized from the technique of Dialogical Thematic Analysis with some elements of Silvia and Borges (2018) and culminated in the construction of maps of meanings with the themes and subthemes of each of the interviewees. After the analysis of these maps we built a semiotic map that illustrates the presence of common themes to the three interviewees. Furthermore, we believe that this work contributed to understand the Literacy described in the BNCC and to plan, develop and analyze continuing education processes with a group of teachers who work with the Science curriculum component in the final years of elementary school. Based on what was built, it is suggested that future studies should follow paths to help strengthen the discussions around the implementation of the BNCC, the Continuing Education of Science Teachers and Scientific Literacy, in order to promote the necessary conditions for the teaching of science.
