This research aims to analyze the pedagogical mediation performed by a graduate student of Biological Sciences during a science lesson oriented on inquiry-based teaching that involved scientific concepts of physics. It is a qualitative intervention research, which used the discursive interactions between teacher and pupils in the sixth year of primary education in a public school in Vitória, Espírito Santo, collected as audio recordings. The analysis of the mediation carried out by the graduate student relied on Wertsch’s theory of mediated action, and the scientific enculturation process has been investigated under the light of sociocultural matrix. The results help us to understand the intrinsic relation between an intentional and organized mediated action and the availability of a rich verbal interaction in an inquiry-based environment that contributed to process of scientific enculturation of students.
