The scientific literacy has been focused for some years as a methodological trend in science teaching. Its main objective is to educate citizens and make them take part in the science course through a clearer comprehension of its goals. However, to accomplish that, it is necessary that teachers reflect on the limitations that are imposed to the teaching practice before trying to adopt a new methodology. This way, partnerships between researchers and teachers can be more efficient in the process of conducting changes in the traditional teaching. The efficiency of these partnerships is in the reflection moments that happen on the practice shared by teachers and researchers. Furthermore, the trasnformations in teaching tend to be permanent and efficient when teachers knowledge is taken into account, which makes a more autonomous pedagogic remake for teachers possible. In this paper, the reflections of a science teacher about a pedagogic proposal based on the scientific alphabetization is shown, analyzed and discussed. It is used an action research in order to establish a partnership between the teacher and the researcher. For this purpose, first the initial teachers formation and her school daily profile are reviewed. Then, the teachers reflection about the pedagogic activity is stressed. This research aims to underline the importance of partnerships between teachers and researchers who pursues the development of teaching practice through reflection. It was verified that the effected partnership was useful, since it enabled the teacher to have a more investigating perspective about her practice, that is, it made her question it and propose new ways.
