Resumo:In an attempt to deal with the consequences of hunger and poor eating habits, especially in Brazil that moves between malnutrition and obesity, many studies have been addressing the theme Food-Nutrition. Of particular interest to educators are those dealing with the physiological aspect, where malnutrition is being investigated as a limiting factor for learning, as well as those focusing on food and nutrition education. In this qualitative study, we sought to develop and evaluate the potential of a Didactic Sequence, an educational product resulting from a master's dissertation entitled: “Tell me what you eat and I will tell you if you are healthy” about Food and Nutrition Education, based on a Freirean educational perspective, developed in the dynamics of Pedagogical Moments. Essentially, we sought to promote the adoption of more critical and reflective attitudes towards eating habits by students. A survey questionnaire was applied and then the Didactic Sequence in an 8th grade elementary school class in a public school in NatalRN. In addition to the questionnaire, an adapted portfolio, classroom activities and direct observation were used as data collection instruments. Results were analyzed using elements of content analysis. The analysis of the survey questionnaires showed that students have a range of misconceptions regarding food-nutrition; do not identify the nutrients present in each food; they consume too much high-calorie cholesterol and sodium foods; and they hardly consume whole grains and olive oil. The results of the intervention showed that students resist participating in non-traditional methodologies. Thus, we consider some positive points achieved: the encouragement to the proposition of hypotheses and the possibility of reflection regarding the eating habits. In addition, after the intervention, more students began to refer to the preparation method, the choice of ingredients and hygiene, reflecting an understanding that food is more than eating food and understanding that many factors will drive the food. food choices. Misconceptions diagnosed in the pretest were not completely abandoned, given their persistence and difficult overcoming. Another limitation observed was the difficulty related to mathematical operations. Even so, the school proved to be a favorable space to implement actions in Food and Nutrition Education, aiming at the emancipation of the student. The perspective of Freirean problematization made it possible for the students to be at the center of the debate, allowing them to reflect on the reality and question it.
