The research introduced in this paper is a qualitative review and it investigated the apprenticeship of the concepts related to the Bohr atomic model by the students from the first grade in high school during a thematic workshop. In this workshop, there was an experimental activity in which light emission from the electronic jumps which occur in compounds present in lightsticks, bracelets handed out in parties, was presented. The purpose was to associate the assumptions proposed by Bohr to aspects of the daily life of the students. The research was carried out in a high school in the city of Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and the results obtained allow us to assert that the developed thematic workshop contributed to the apprenticeship of the concepts related to the Bohr atomic theory.
