PLAY THE SOUND DJ! TEACHING SEQUENCE ON SEXUALITY WITH THE USE OF MUSIC AND VIDEO CLIPS

Abstract

Sexuality is an important cross-cutting theme to be debated in the school environment. As it is a theme that, at times, due to poor driving, it can generate unnecessary controversy, it was decided to read video clips and songs that are in the daily context of young people's lives. In this sense, 10 classes were prepared for a class of 34 students, aged 16 to 17, Youth and Adult Education II, 8th and 9th grade of Elementary School at a Municipal School, in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Northeastern Brazil. The objective of this work was to develop a didactic sequence (SD) on the topic of sexuality through music and video clips. Most of the time, the subject is neglected in the school environment, mainly because it hurts the morality imposed by the standard of the conservative contemporary society. However, it is a cross-cutting theme and must necessarily be present in the basic education curriculum, above all basing debates on teenage pregnancy, contraceptive methods, sexually transmitted infections, respect for the body, among others. Through the applied didactic sequence, it was possible to raise the debate on sexuality within different cultural productions, this approach suggests the use of popular and multicultural knowledge in the classroom and illustrates well the dialogue between scientific knowledge and cultural issues such as music and productions audiovisual.
