Abstract: This research aimed to discuss the Geodiversity theme through a sequence of activities in Early Childhood Education, highlighting the importance of its insertion in this teaching stage. The choice of the theme is due to the place where the activities were implemented, Caçapava do Sul - RS called the geological diversity capital. Twelve activities were developed and implemented at Nilza Torres Dorneles Pre-Kindergarten in a class with 11 three- and four-year-old students, in the second semester of 2018. The methodological approach was qualitative and documentary, through the analysis of different records. They were obtained during the pedagogical interventions through observations, filming, photography, and drawings. Results show that the contextualized theme with the school reality allowed students to develop autonomy and criticality, essential factors for the construction of autonomous and participative subjects. It is noteworthy that the development of playful activities, articulated with previous knowledge, an appropriate scientific knowledge collaborating for scientific literacy from an early age.
