The place, category of analysis of the geographical space, presents several possibilities for the understanding of the contradictions and similarities that are realized in it. The teaching of geography can link to these contradictions and similarities and provide the basic elements so that by understanding their realities can act on them. We consider that the city as a space of experience, affection, solidarity, collective, spatiality of subjects should be valued for the construction of knowledge in the teaching of geography through the category place. In this sense, this scientific investigation aimed to analyze the construction of knowledge in geography through the place category by teachers and students of the 5th and 6th grade of elementary school in Formosa-Goiás. The methodology used was qualitative, based on the following procedures: bibliographic research in order to deepen the theme in question; documentary analysis of the Pedagogical Political Project of the Auta Vidal and Franklin Gaham municipal schools, semi-structured interviews in order to know the development of the teaching actions. Students were also given questionnaires. Through the analysis of the documents and interviews, it was noticed that there are many obstacles to be overcome for the teaching of this discipline to become significant, because the results attested that the process of learning / teaching geography in the researched schools neglects the category as a mediating instance in the construction of geographical knowledge, and that students establish little relationship with their daily lives, which interferes with the formation of citizenship. From the results that were built by this research and through the conversation wheels made with students and teachers to define the themes to be approached, the creation of an educational blog to discuss pedagogical practices was established as a principle for the construction of the educational product. given the need to consider the place in the teaching of geography and thus enable geographic knowledge to be meaningfully constructed by teachers and students.
