Abstract

This dissertation is linked to the Professional Master's Course in Public Policies and Educational Management, of the Postgraduate Program in Public Policies and Educational Management, of the Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM/RS), of the Pedagogical Management and Educational Contexts Research Line (LP/2); refers to innovative practices in classroom management: interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, specifically about transdisciplinary pedagogical practice in Early Childhood Education, through fairy tales. As a question of concern, which we seek to answer: How do gaucho fairy tales provide a new meaning for the meanings of classic fairy tales? With the general objective of providing innovations in Early Childhood Education, through interdisciplinarity and transdisciplinarity, providing enchanting activities based on Gaucho fairy tales. And, for specific objectives, to apply fairy tales as means for establishing interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary pedagogical practices and re-signifying the meanings of classic fairy tales with their reinterpretations connected to Gaucho culture. The methodology used was qualitative research, carried out through (auto)biographical narratives, related to pedagogical practices developed with a Pre-School B class, with 19 students aged five and six, from the Escola Municipal de Educação Infantil Professora Zulânia de Fátima Simionato Salamoni, located in the municipality of Santa Maria/RS. The theoretical framework takes into account educational legislation and authors such as Morin (1998;2020), Freire (1992;2019), Chalita (2003), Bettelheim (1978) and Josso (2010;2020). The technical/educational product resulting from the research was the creation of a fairy tale, written by the children themselves, stimulating the text according to the Rio Grande do Sul context. Storytelling in Early Childhood Education has been given a new meaning, inspiring other educators to innovate their interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary pedagogical practices, which seek to form the entire Human Being. It was noticed that the socio-cultural mediation provided through classic fairy tales and Gaucho fairy tales enabled the collective production of an e-book narrated and illustrated by children, innovating pedagogical practice.
