The following research presents a cartographic strategy for teaching and learning Social Sciences, with the aim of fostering the development of critical thinking and metacognitive awareness, in the face of a global and changing society that requires mechanisms to understand the territory it inhabits. The sample consisted of twenty-nine sixth-grade students from an educational institution in the municipality of Villamaría (Caldas). A quantitative methodology was chosen, under a pre-experimental design of a group with pre-test and post-test using two instruments: a rubric designed and approved by Expert Judgment for the measurement of critical thinking and the MAI Junior test developed by Huertas t al. (2014) to evaluate changes in students’ metacognitive awareness. As a result, it was obtained that the strategy was effective in the development of critical thinking and metacognitive awareness.
