PLAYFULNESS AS A TEACHING METHODOLOGY IN THE FIRST SEGMENT OF YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT EDUCATION - EJA

Abstract

This article is an excerpt from the Master's Dissertation that addresses "PLAYFULNESS IN TEACHING STUDENTS IN THE FIRST SEGMENT OF EJA ATALAIA DO NORTE - AM". When considering children and their early life trajectory, it is believed that this is a period full of pleasure and fun, keeping in mind that in the school environment it cannot be different, since it is considered a stage of life in which they only have fun. In fact, children, during their moments of pleasure, that is, when they are playing alone or with friends, experience a very personal world, created and imagined by them, a world full of fantasies that lead them to express all their feelings and emotions. Thus, it is understood that all their representations about the world and the understanding of everything they have created are responsible for transforming their process of formation as a subject. Therefore, it is believed that the playful practice inserted in the children's educational process is of great relevance, not only for their full formation, but also for their intellectual development. With this in mind, a theoretical-bibliographical study was carried out using concepts from authors who are experts in the subject in question, with the purpose of understanding more carefully and efficiently the importance of playfulness for the teaching-learning process, as well as how it is used in children's learning, aiming for significant learning.
