BATERIAS PSICOMOTORAS LINGUAGEM, MATERIAIS, APLICAÇÃO E CLASSIFICAÇÃO

Abstract

Psychomotor assessment is one of the most effective tools for identifying limitations, degree of maturity and detecting developmental changes in school-aged children. In this sense, the objective of this work is to create a book with the three most used psychomotor batteries in Brazilian studies. For this, a longitudinal, observational study was carried out with 191 teachers in the municipal centers of early childhood education CMEIs in Anápolis, and 50 children aged 05 and 06 years. As methodological procedures used, a survey was made of the three most used psychomotor batteries in studies with the Brazilian population in the last 10 years; followed by the application of a questionnaire to identify the level of knowledge of teachers about the subject; application of the three batteries by 3 experienced teachers and 3 inexperienced teachers in 50 children, at the end a questionnaire was applied to the teachers to record their impressions regarding the applicability of the batteries in terms of time spent, material used, classification and difficulties encountered. As a result, it was possible to verify that most teachers lack guidance, structure and training regarding the knowledge and use of batteries. The batteries of psychomotor tests by Rosa Neto, Oliveira and Fonseca are the most used in scientific articles available on the internet. Based on the results found, it was possible to create a book as an educational product that would guide the teacher in choosing the most appropriate instrument for his/her reality and help in understanding the psychomotor assessment, in order to identify the students' motor difficulties more precisely. In short, the study emphasizes the importance of psychomotor assessment in early childhood education and highlights the need for adequate training and guidance for teachers to use these tools effectively.
