This research aims to analyze the study of the subject of Geography in an elementary school setting, where the child begins to understand the Earth, its surface, landscapes, as well as places and regions through documentary exploration. For this research, techniques necessary for data collection were used, such as documentary analysis, observation within the classroom context, survey, and interview. The data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively, to know the characteristics, strategies, and resources used by the students in the classroom, as well as the teachers’ perception in their work as an agent of knowledge. Among the most relevant results, it was found that teachers mainly use traditional teaching strategies, such as the textbook and notebook, and the students do not feel motivated by these means, besides preferring to learn with the use of new technologies. The information obtained from this research will serve in the future as a basis for the analysis stage of the development of software that serves as a technological strategy in the subject of Geography to strengthen the competencies of students and teachers.
