Abstract

Excessive memorization of concepts and theories persists in classes of Science and Biology, besides the decontextualization. Biological collections, when related to Unconventional Food Plants (UFP), can be an excellent way to connect botanical content with plants present in student’s regular lives. Thus, this work aimed to report the elaboration of a dried didactic collection of UFP to be used by teachers in Biology classes to contribute to a more attractive and meaningful learning. Information about UFP was searched and species in the state of Sergipe that could contribute to the teaching and learning process were selected. Although low motivation is still present in current education, it is necessary to look for alternatives to improve the quality of education and, consequently, to raise citizens aware of the world around them.
