RESUMO:

Astronomy is used as a motivation theme to teaching Physics in High School, being a tool on teaching-learning process. To aim this, playful practices were used to arouse the interest by students since games creation, as: Unveiling Universe Secrets and Eclipse Boxes. First one is a classic board game that calls attention of the students and may be used by people of any age, whereas it is a curious and fascinating theme that contemplates the unknown. However, despite of the interest and the improvement on every age, it must present some difficulty to less than 8 years old children, because evolves universe functionality knowledge and because of the complexity of the subject. Level of questions might be a bit elevated and hard to understand to this age range. Game rules are simple, as any board game, you must get to the finish to win. It is possible to gather many people and split them in two groups to go through the game way, discovering curiosities about the Universe and making a special road trip by the Solar System. The second one is a box with models on a large scale of the Sun, Moon and the Earth, showing its alignment and conditions to eclipses occurrence, moon phases and yearly seasons. This work was applied to High School second grade students, aiming to evaluate and analyze the acquired knowledge on basic education. Through analysis, it was observed that this proposal obtained satisfactory results about Astronomy learning. Find out more about the Earth and planets orbiting the Sun can make anyone discover love for the Astronomy and contemplates the Sky is a unknown that may offers much more than we think.
