The textbook is an important material for students of Basic Education as a reference source and to the teachers as a pedagogical support. This study had the objective of evaluating, in the socio-environmental scope, the approach the concepts related to Chondrichthyes, available in nine textbooks of high school Biology, approved by the National Textbook Program (PNLD 2015). It's used a qualitative methodology, criteria established by the PNLD 2015 and the National Curriculum Guidelines for Environmental Education as a parameter to evaluate the socio-environmental approaches. It was observed the absence of a critical-reflective approach on the relation among sharks-environment-humans. There was a negative view attributed to sharks by the incidents of attacks on humans. There is a need to discuss the socio-environmental situation of Chondrichthyes, the role of these organisms in the trophic regulation of the oceans and contextualize it directly to habitat loss problem and finning, abandoning the point of view anthropocentric and utilitarian still found in some high school books.
