This research analyzes, through a teaching experience, teaching Geography in the survey with the aim of building a spatial thinking by students. For this, it has been an object of research a Didactic sequence (SD) in Geography teaching for elementary school, planned, implemented and evaluated by two teachers, in order to understand how the teaching of Geography from the research can collaborate for the student to meet their everyday spatial practices, and their place of experience as a reference to analyze the geographic space. To make feasible what was proposed, methodologically, this research was based on action research assumptions, with elements of ethnographic research. Many questions permeate the intention and the development of this research, such as research can make a methodological approach to the teaching of school geography? How the teaching of Geography from research can contribute to the development of spatial concepts by students? To what extent the local student can contribute to be an analysis of the scale of the research Geography teaching? Thus, we sought to initially conduct a literature review of the theoretical basis for teaching Geography from pesqusia the papers presented at the National Meeting of Geography Teaching Practice (Enpeg) and Core forums Teaching and Research in Geographical Education (Nepeg) . Were analyzed, then theses and dissertations of the last decade that address the theme of research in school geographical education. Later, it was made a semi-structured interview with the teacher and I were observed their practices. Was also examined the expression of perceptions of teacher II from the questions asked Professor I. At the end, we proceeded to the analysis of some documents, such as the National Curriculum Parameters (PCN), the National Curricular Guidelines (DCN) the pedagogical projects of the main courses that form Geography teachers in Goiás and the Pedagogical Political Project (PPP) of schooling field of research. Teaching Sequence started from a dialectical conception of education, focusing on the questioning, organization and synthesis of knowledge. The activities were aimed at students, while researching his subjects, could question the content from its initial social practice and could count on the teacher in mediating the geographic content and the orientation of their research. Finally, the activities sought to promote a return to the initial social practice of these students, in which the initial notion of them were already processed and forwarded to the formation of a spatial thinking and a geographic look. There was the intention on the part of teachers I and II, that students could build their spatial concepts according to the specific contents of Geography, when making a significant offer to students and act in their classrooms to develop and create potential, not just limited to expect the capabilities necessary for the understanding of a particular concept ever to develop.
