Interdisciplinary approach means exchanging reciprocity and intensity among different school subjects allowing students to get a wider comprehension and understanding of situations and problems, overcoming the fragmentation of the knowledge. This article deals with the transversal theme Environment in the subject of Geography, which was developed at Escola Estadual de Ensino Fundamental Dr Pery da Cunha Gonçalves, located in São Gabriel/ RS, 6º grade, class A. The following themes were studied: garbage separation, selective collection of the garbage, pollution, reasonable use of water. The methodology used was doing projects to help students understand all the multiple aspects of their reality, showing them that a sustainable approach is possible and this way the learning process becomes more significant as it was demonstrated by the evaluation process results that were compared to the group which was not part of the research.
