Nossa comunicação é rica em imagens, sejam estáticas ou animadas. Considerá-las na prática docente é relevante a aprendizagem. Assim, os Desenhos Animados podem servir de aporte rico para uma linguagem lúdica nas aulas de Geografia. O presente estudo é uma síntese do trabalho de conclusão de curso apresentado na Especialização em Fundamentos da Educação, da Universidade Estadual da Paraíba-UEPB. Foram utilizados Clássicos da Disney e As Espiãs como recurso didático nas aulas de Geografia em uma turma de 2o ano do Ensino Médio, não apenas como forma de ilustrar, mas também de dinamizar o conteúdo estudado - Sistemas Econômicos -, levantando debates e realizando atividades, para o desenvolvimento do senso crítico diante das imagens. Além de fornecer uma ferramenta lúdica ao Ensino Médio, tal estudo aponta a relevância do professor mediador no desenvolvimento do pensamento crítico, para que o aluno se torne um protagonista de suas vivências e cidadão participativo. PALAVRAS-CHAVE Recurso didático, Ensino de Geografia, Animações.   LUDICITY IN HIGH SCHOOL: Geography lesson through animated drawigs ABSTRACT Our communication is rich in images, whether static or animated. Considering them in teaching practice is relevant to learning. Thus, Cartoons can serve as a rich contribution to a playful language in Geography classes. The present study is a synthesis of the course conclusion work presented in the Specialization in Fundamentals of Education, of the State University of Paraíba-UEPB. Disney Classics and The Spies were used as a teaching resource in Geography classes in a 2nd degree of High School, not only as a way to illustrate, but also to streamline the content studied - Economic Systems -, raising debates and carrying out activities, for the development of critical sense from images. In addition to providing a recreational tool for high school, this study points out the relevance of the mediating teacher in the development of critical thinking, so that the student becomes a protagonist of his experiences and a participative citizen.
