Resumo: Este trabalho sistematiza reflexões que orientaram a produção de texto didático de ciências de modo a encorajar os estudantes a desenvolverem conceitos científicos fundamentais. Apoiamo-nos em Vygotsky e Bakhtin para afirmarmos nossa convicção de que os sentidos das palavras não se resolvem em glossários, mas por meio de seu uso em contextos sociais específicos. Apresentamos exemplos, extraídos do texto didático, de estratégias elaboradas com o intuito de se estabelecerem pontes entre os sentidos pessoais, presentes no cotidiano dos estudantes, e os conceitos científicos, com significados mais estabilizados.Palavras-chave: Livro didático. Formação de conceitos. Socioconstrutivismo, linguagem e cognição.Abstract: This paper presents a systematization of the reflections that guided our decisions about how to design a science textbook that best encouraged students to develop basic scientific concepts. We drew upon the theories of Vygotsky and Bakhtin to support our conviction that what a word means is not revealed in a dictionary, but in its use in social contexts. We present extracts from a science textbook, exemplifying strategies aimed at establishing mediations between personal meanings relied on in the everyday life of the students and the scientific concepts with more stable meanings.
