This article is the result of a set of continuing education actions for teachers of the Porto Alegre Municipal Teaching Network (RME-POA), which made possible the learning in music and the expanding of the existing knowledge. From the realization of the courses “Musical Education in Preschool”, “Music Education in Elementary School” was observed its contribution to the pedagogical practices of the teachers, impelling an investigation to understand the impacts of these actions with the RME-POA. The methodology used included the qualitative approach, participant research, observations, and interviews. Content analysis was the technique for data analysis. As a result, the relevance of continuing education courses for teachers who know the pedagogical practices of their colleagues from a sharing of work developed in the course, felt renewed to work more and better their own practices.
