Abstract
This undergraduate project is focused on the modality of “systematization of pre professional experiences.” This project has been able to verify the few didactic strategies implemented for the teaching-learning process of Natural Sciences. The classes for this subject have been developed in a repetitive and memorization process. As a result, there is a partial accomplishment of the learning skills. The project was focused on the design and application of a didactic strategy for teaching Natural Sciences. This took place in Isaac A. Chico School in a 4th grade setting of 37 students between the ages of 8 and 9. This reflective process has been developed since the 6th semester, however, the learning styles at that educational level were reflected at the 7th semester. The proposal takes Felder and Silverman learning styles as a reference model and the scientific thought as a pedagogical focus. For its implementation, the research process was mixed and based on 3 stages: planning, development and evaluation. It was carried out through the Participatory Action Research. It had the diagnosis of the students’ learning styles as a starting point and as a result, a systematization sheet which was based on the the following: context, duration, subject to be developed, skills to be addressed and the strategy aim. The feedback, on the other hand, is based on the level teacher's perception as well as a performance improvement posttest.
