Physical work in a rural school requires the teacher to engage with everyday situations that the student may encounter. In this research, a didactic sequence was carried out, with dynamic content classes and observation of light reflection phenomena, in everyday objects and also with image records in the Iguaçu River. Working with generating themes as proposed by Freire makes the student subject to learning, interacting with previous and scientific knowledge presented by the teacher, resulting in significant learning. The use of technologies enables students of education in the field to understand and analyze facts that influence their life with the environment. The rural community of Vila Palmira in the interior of São João do Triunfo is on the banks of the Iguaçu River, having great importance in the execution of this work. The didactic sequence lasted for six class hours, distributed over three weeks. The activity carried out inside and outside the classroom brought together physics, art and technology, aiming to study laws of reflection and specific cases where it occurs. The students presented a good development of concepts and learning about the studied theme. It is worth mentioning that in the current literature there is no published work dealing with these themes and in such a way.
