The word ecology is not used to name a disciplinary field of biology. Today it names a broader sociopolitical movement, whose core is to seek an alternative to the growing processes of socio-environmental degradation in society. Since the 80's of last century, a series of initiatives have been developed with the aim of forming an ecological subject. Although awareness of environmental issues has grown in recent years, there is no mobilization that is capable to change the way of living and production that contribute to the current process of socioenvironmental degradation. The school also reflects this movement. Environmental education projects in private schools, although politically correct, work with a notion of limited ecology and are reinforced by environmental awareness campaigns disseminated by various social institutions and by the media in general. Analyzing the trajectory of ecological thinking and aiming to broaden the notion of ecology, mainly the vision and ecological perspective adopted by Moscovici, this work consists of analyzing how the process of ecological formation of 4th graders of a private elementary school of the city of São Paulo its developed and what are the implications of this formation in the constitution of an ecological person. Taking into account the urban and social context of the children interviewed, it was possible to observe beyond a notion of restricted ecology, the absence of a repertoire of values that would characterize an ecological perspective that is absent not only in the formation of the students, but also in the notion of ecology that circulates in society
