Currently, several methodologies emerge with the intent of contributing to meaningful learning, among which mathematical modelling stands out, making it possible to relate mathematics to everyday problem situations and other disciplines. An extension program was developed using this methodology to approach optical phenomena in an interdisciplinary teaching process for mathematics and physics. The target audience was teachers and future teachers of these disciplines and the purpose was to promote practices that contribute to their training, encouraging them to organise activities with their high school students, integrating these disciplines. Therefore, four experiments were conducted involving physical and mathematical concepts, allowing the creation of generic models and practices that promote meaningful learning.
