A contação de história na educação infantil: práticas e reflexões

Abstract

"Storytelling" is one of the earliest records of mankind. It is understood that through storytelling it is possible to learn and develop respect for our fellow men, to distinguish the right, to give value to human feelings. The purpose of this course completion work is to analyze the role or contribution of storytelling to child development and how it contributes to the development of children attending early childhood education. The research is justified because we understand that by exploring storytelling in a pleasurable way, it is possible for the subjects to elaborate on the lived and concepts that interest the teacher to develop, which, in turn, contributes to child development, benefiting greatly its processes of language development in early childhood education. Methodologically, we worked with the bibliographical review to construct and confirm the theoretical reference and, for the accomplishment of the field research, the application of questionnaires with open and closed questions was used. The work allowed to evaluate what teachers think and believe, in the case of the storytelling story as a methodological teaching practice, since this practice dynamically enhances teaching in school practice. The contributions and theoretical foundations of this work are based on authors such as: Teixeira (2010), Abramovich (1997), Prado (2005), Moura (2010), Coelho (2001), among others.
