Abstract

Science education has undergone transformations over time, however, some issues still need to be overcome. Furthermore, the teacher's teaching style is a reflection of their style of learning and if there are no similarities of styles between teachers and students, learning is compromised. This study aimed to understand the learning styles and preferences of practices developed in the classroom in Science teaching by teachers in the early years of elementary school. We use a quali-quantitative approach and convenience sampling. The instruments for data collection were: questionnaire and N-ILS test (New Index of Learning Styles). For statistical analysis, statistical software in the free version of tests was used: Statistica 12 and Statistical Packages for the Social Sciences (SPSS 20). Most teachers preferred the sensory/visual/active/sequential learning style, it was found that teachers emphasize concrete and factual information, inductively organize the content and consider that the active participation mode of students facilitates the educational process.
