The need for approaches that take in account transversality on science concepts teaching increase with acceptance of National Curricular Parameters (PCN) orientation. The interdisciplinarity became an alternative to accomplish of transversality. However to make concrete transversality as a pedagogical action during classes, interdisciplinarity must be sustained by a teacher that must have support of adequate didactic and paradidactic material. In this context, this work presents an interdisciplinary study about physical concepts as heat and temperature, focusing thermal sensation. It is used the well-known experience of the three vessels as a discussion motto. This experience can be found in many didactic science text books in Brazil, although it is rarely explored.
