Arachnids comprise the phylum Arthropoda, consisting primarily of scorpion spiders, ticks and mites. Among these, the most prominent are spiders and scorpions, which have great ecological and clinical relevance. However, these animals also cause fear and repudiation due to their ability to produce and inoculate poison, leading to the occurrence of several accidents, most of which become severe. As for the teaching of this theme in schools, the National Curriculum Parameters (PCN's), guarantee the study and debate about the content "arachnids" in the second year of high school, being the specific series for the study of Zoology. Thus, the aim of this paper is to record the perception of high school students from state schools in the municipality of Uruçuí about arachnids and to promote an informative and reflective debate on the subject. To conduct this study, questionnaires were applied to students of the 2nd year of two public schools of Uruçuí-PI, to reach the perception of these students in relation to the theme addressed. To participate in the research, all students were informed about the research, as well as its objectives and, subsequently, their parents or guardians signed an informed consent. After data collection, lectures were presented to inform and cover the students' conception of the topic discussed, especially regarding the knowledge of the organisms and first aid. Thus, it was observed that most students do not know what arachnids are and are unaware of their importance to the environment. The vast majority said they were afraid of these animals because they were poisonous and would kill spiders or scorpions, even in the animal's own habitat. In addition, most students reported not knowing what procedures to perform in case of accidents with these bodies. Thus, it was found that the content of arachnids is not specifically addressed in the schools observed, showing the need for improvements in the teaching of zoology, especially with the use of more attractive methods such as practical classes, field and first aid.
