The diversification of contents in Physical Education classes is a controversial issue in the academic environment. This study aimed to identify the contents that are being developed in the classes of the final years of elementary education, the interest of students in diversified contents and the importance given to this diversification in their education. A structured questionnaire was applied to 905 students from six schools of the municipal network of Teutônia/RS. Sixth and seventh grade students believe in the importance of the diversification of contents for their education (50.09%), while the eighth and ninth grades do not have the same conviction (38.14%). The contents preferred by the students coincide with those most practiced in the classes: Soccer, Futsal and Volleyball. It is concluded that there is no variety of contents in the classes and also there is no interest of the students in this diversification, showing more interest for the conventional practices. Further studies are needed to deepen the theme and discover the reasons for this preference, since a structured questionnaire is limited for this type of discovery.
