Abstract
This study aimed to understand the perception of teachers from the final years of Elementary Schools from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, about Environmental Education and how they practice it. A questionnaire was elaborated and sent to teachers from different schools and cities of Rio Grande do Sul state through Google Forms. It was observed that the teachers recognize the importance of Environmental Education, and in general agree that it has to be worked in an interdisciplinary manner, however, they don’t have the education to do so; they don’t know the existent Brazilian legislation about the theme and don’t effectively comprehend the meaning of teaching Environmental Education. The practices in the schools lack further development and meaning, being incapable of attending to its objective of shaping ecologic and critical individuals that are aware of their role in the preservation of the environment.
