"A gente brinca de sonhar" com crianças de 4 e 5 anos da educação infantil

Abstract

"We play to dream" with children aged 4 and 5 years old of kindergarten, came from the curiosity in how the freeform play is being seen in kindergarten in this municipality. With my questions on this subject, my notebook under my arm and my paraphernalia record, I went to the observations in kindergarten groups, conducting field research, made a cut of reality found with their peculiarities and curiosities. Question here the scope of spontaneous play, as it is seen and what its importance in the daily lives of these schools. These were thoughts in my head, which led me to further study on this subject. On this journey, I tried to understand even more the need of creative and spontaneous play in the lives of small social subjects, and the role of the teacher in front of this play. I realized that the freeform play is losing space, time, and force on the day of children, having a less noble position on teacher planning, and cease to form part of the kindergarten curriculum, as it should. With a spontaneous play, using different objects (unstructured materials, organic) in a provocative atmosphere, it can be understood as an internal experience, in a whole and complete way by the subject. It is playing that if you can learn what it takes to live. Then will we rescue the child who still lives in us? Look with the keenest eye and perhaps even participate in this joke?! Allowing children to live the fullness of her childhood.
