Abstract
This article describes an experience report on the application of Scratch workshops in Science classes, provided to a class of 15 students in the 6th year of Elementary School at a public school in the city of Farroupilha/RS, aiming to stimulate Computational Thinking (PC). A qualitative methodology was used, observations, creation of a project repository and application of a questionnaire to participants. The practical activities were designed to provide a dynamic and interactive approach, promoting the connection between scientific concepts and programming skills. A positive impact was observed, not only on the development of Computational Thinking, but also on a deeper understanding of the scientific topics covered. At the end of the study, it was concluded that the use of Scratch enriched the experience of the teaching and learning process in Science, proving to be an effective tool at the same time that it promoted PC through programming.
