Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to mediate the proposal of several educational activities that are focused on the active involvement of primary education pupils in developing the topic of man and nature. As it is recommended to introduce pupils to the natural environment through the practical, active and investigative character of teaching, we point out the importance of cooperative learning as a system that is characterized by experiential and activating methods. In accordance with the principles of cooperative learning, we have proposed several activities that can be implemented in the educational process in the subject of science at primary school.
