A IMPORTÂNCIA DA AFETIVIDADE PARA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL

Abstract

The present work aims to discuss the importance of an affective education for Early Childhood Education, highlighting the relevance of affectivity for the development and learning of childhood. The research problem seeks to answer the following question: "What is the relationship between affectivity, development and learning in Early Childhood Education?" The methodological approach is qualitative and the bibliographic research is supported by the contributions of authors such as Jean Piaget (1967, 1973, 1976, 1978a, 1978b, 1990, 1994, 1997, 2004, 2014), Lev Vygotsky (1988, 1989a, 1989b, 1993 , 1998, 2001, 2002) and Henri Wallon (1968, 1971, 1973/1975, 1978, 1986, 1989, 2007), among others, as well as in books and scientific articles consulted on Google Scholar and the Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo ). For this, we seek to know and understand the process of human evolution, the main aspects studied and the factors that influence this process, emphasizing the relevance of the childhood development phase and its reflections on the subject's future. From this research, we hope to contribute to the reflection on the importance of affectivity in the process of formation of the being and its impact on learning, as well as on the need to build a new vision of education that considers the student in their entirety, making them the feeling valued and respected in their rights, object of respect, love, affection and interest during their growth. This makes learning more meaningful and productive, because, when they feel valued, the child feels more stimulated and confident, which favors their formation as a whole human being and not just in their school life.
