Resumo: The Teaching of Science is a perspective that should be contemplated from an early age. However, we note that investigations on the stage of early childhood education are still incipient. It is in this context that emerges from our research, focusing on understanding the science of children aged 4 and 5 years, teachers who work in this stage of schooling and institutions involved in the process. Thus, the research question we seek to answer is: what is revealed about the learning and teaching of science from the schools that offer Early Childhood Education in the city of Cascavel? This issue engenders foci above and from it, a qualitative research approach, we proceeded to collect data using field research involving interviews with teachers from five institutions of municipal schools and 5 private network offering Early Childhood Education; interview with the coordinator of the selected institutions and also with two students from each institution. We also observed a classroom teacher. From there, we made the processing of data inspired by Grounded Theory. We list the following categories of Teacher Training for Early Education; The Teaching of Science in Early Childhood Education; Methodological strategies in science class; What you learn in school and Design Sciences for children aged 4 and 5 years. From them carry on about the ways that science education has been worked in the city of Cascavel. In short, we can say that the teaching of science is relegated to the background in relation to other disciplines and that this function of pedagogical conceptions of teachers about students' cognitive abilities can occur. These, in turn, present only the positive dimension of science, in the sense that it lends itself to the care of nature and human beings. Key-words: Science Teaching; Early Childhoo
