EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL: A IMPORTÂNCIA DAS BRINCADEIRAS INTENCIONALMENTE ORGANIZADAS PELO PROFESSOR

Abstract

The present work has as its theme The intentionality of playing in early childhood education. It arises from the experience with this stage of the child's school life and from some concerns that lead to questions, such as: what is the importance of playing for children in early childhood education? What is the teacher's role for the intentional development of play with children? Why should games be intentionally organized by the teacher at this stage of school? Based on these questions, our objective is to analyze the role of intentional playing in early childhood education, what is the relevance of playing for the child and finally, to identify the teacher's contribution as a propitiator of intentional playing. The methodological path chosen was that of the research. We used the bibliographic review as a methodology, which is based on the studies of Vygotsky (1998), Kishimoto (2010) Santos (2002) among others. We conclude that play and games are important tools for the child's integral development and preparation for a new educational stage.
