The objectives focus on: analyzing the pedagogy course introduction process in to the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES), campus São Mateus; identifying space and time of Science teaching in the curricula of courses that guided the training of pedagogues; checking whether the training process has allowed teachers to analyze critically the development of curriculum and their own pedagogical activities, in relation to the contents and methodology of elementary school early grades. The adopted theoretical perspective situated the history of Science teaching, indicating fundamentals to the discussion of training needs of teachers working at this school level. It is a qualitative research. Data collection was made by means of document analysis, questionnaire and interviews. Course components and curricula of the different Pedagogy courses offered by UFES in São Mateus were examined. Thirty-four teachers who work at public schools and took any of those courses at UFES/São Mateus answered the questionnaire, which consisted of open and close questions. Two teachers who work at the city education department were interviewed. The collected data was interpreted according to content analysis methodology. The results obtained showed that Science teaching continues based on content transference, pointing out limitations to teachers' practice and training, and stressing the necessity to provide teachers who work in the early stages with continuing education focused on their training and experience knowledge.
