Abstract: This study is delimited to the analysis of the importance of environmental practices within the school context, considering their pedagogical application, the content that addresses them, and the impact they have on the critical and civic formation of students. The choice of the topic is justified by the growing social and academic demand to incorporate Environmental Education as a structuring element of the educational process, as provided for in Law No. 9,795/1999 and in the guidelines of the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC). Environmental practices in the school context not only encourage the preservation and conservation of the environment but also promote students’ active participation in socially relevant issues, strengthening the link between theory and practice. The methodology adopted was a literature review. Scientific articles, books, and official documents discussing the concept of environmental practices, the curricular approach to the theme, and its impact on the formation of the individual were selected. The general objective of this work is to analyze the importance of environmental practices in the school context, highlighting their contribution to the formation of conscious and responsible individuals regarding the environment. The specific objectives are to understand the concept of environmental practices and their application in the school environment; to identify the curricular content that addresses environmental practices and how it is inserted in pedagogical proposals; and to assess the impact that addressing the theme of environmental practices has on the critical and civic formation of students.
