Abstract

This text is an excerpt of a research developed within the scope of the Course Completion Work (TCC) of the graduation in Degree in Geography from the State University of Bahia (UNEB), Campus IX Serrinha, semi-arid region of Bahia, entitled: “Campo, city, urban and rural: concepts, representations and approaches in Geography textbooks”. For the present essay, we used the photographic records that are part of the methodological collection of the research to weave reflections from a theoretical contribution that deals with small towns, ruralities, photographs and the teaching of Geography. The reflections defend the insertion of the studentsꞌ daily spatial practices in the approaches of concepts and themes of Geography at school. Besides, the unique dynamics of the small town through the manifestations of ruralities that occur in it also explains its particularities in relation to medium and large cities, and its recognition in the context of teaching Geography, conceives other and different modes of understanding these spaces and of the ways of being of the who experience them.

Keywords: Small town. Ruralities. Photographs. Teaching Geography.
