Abstract

This study deals with the teaching of Art, in dialog with the elements of Bumba Meu Boi do Maranhão, highlighting the objectives established by the PCNs, BNCC, Curriculum Proposal of the Municipality of Raposa. The aim of the research is to analyze the teaching and learning process in Art, based on the elements of Bumba Meu Boi do Maranhão, with an emphasis on the methodology of the Theatre of the Oppressed, highlighting the life stories of the 9th grade students of the Sarney Filho Integrated Unit, in the municipality of Raposa/MA and their ancestors, in order to understand the social, economic and cultural context. Augusto Boal's Theater of the Oppressed method, with emphasis on Image Theater, considers the student as a spectator/actor, relating them to the socio-economic and cultural issues of Maranhão society. The theoretical foundation was based mainly on the contributions of Augusto Boal and Paulo Freire. The results point to the promotion of critical reflection, local cultural expression and the personal development of the students, contributing to the formation of citizens who are more aware and active in building a fairer and more democratic society.
