This work aims to analyze scientific literacy in its educational aspects, how it can be
used to teach literacy to students in the early years, using comics taken from students
from the Science Club of the Federal University of Pará. In this way, the educational
and social benefits that a well-done scientific literacy process can bring to students will
initially be discussed, to justify the importance of inserting, in a more incisive and
categorical way, scientific literacy activities from the first years of literacy. from the
students. Next, four comic books produced by junior members of the UFPA Science
Club are presented and analyzed, produced to encourage them to demonstrate their
scientific knowledge regarding bacteria and other agents that can attack the human
body. We analyze in these stories how scientific literacy occurred and if it occurred,
distinguishing it from pure and simple literacy.
