This article presents the results of a research carried out at the Liceo Fesán educational institution in Bogotá with tenth grade students, and was intended to relate the chemistry class curriculum with environmental education. Three phases were raised: the application of a pre-test, a Sequence of teaching and learning (SEA) and the application of a post-test. The test used was the Halpern test that allowed characterizing some of the critical thinking skills and a SEA was developed to strengthen the argumentative processes of tenth grade students in the learning of inorganic compounds and their impact on the environment through the development of critical thinking skills. This research is carried out in relation to axes one and two of the CYTPENCRI project, in which didactic instruments are applied to develop critical thinking and argumentation. It is concluded that the didactic intervention does promote a change in critical thinking skills and a relationship between environmental education and the chemistry curriculum.

Keywords : learning; inorganic compound; teaching; environment; critical thinking skills; chemistry.
