Formação do pedagogo através do lúdico: relato de um estagiário na brinquedoteca do CE/UFPB

Abstract

Play is a social practice necessary for human development, constituted as a tool for discovery, construction and learning that finds a real home in toy libraries. In them, play is safeguarded, reworked, lived and relived by different generations. We therefore turned our attention to the university toy libraries, specifically the one located at the Education Center of the Federal University of Paraíba, which are the birthplaces of play as a formative practice in undergraduate courses, especially the Pedagogy course. With this in mind, this paper draws on the contributions of authors such as: Kishimoto (1998; 2007), Vygotsky (1994), Brougère (1998), Sakamoto and Bomtempo (2010), among others, and aims to analyze the experience of the intern-playworker at the Toy Library of the CE/UFPB and its importance in the initial training of pedagogues and, specifically: to map the contribution of the non-mandatory internship at the Toy Library of CE/UFPB to the initial training of the pedagogue; to identify the importance of the specificities as a trainee-playmaker for initial teacher training; and to report on the actions as a playmaker and their contribution to the initial training of the pedagogue. Methodologically, this is a qualitative bibliographic and documentary study that uses the internship reports for the years 2022 and 2023 of an intern at the CE/UFPB Toy Library. Finally, through the internship it was possible to get to know children's reality and learn the ways to mediate the relationships generated by play, in this, the CE/UFPB Toy Library presents itself as a necessity for the initial training of the pedagogue, by enhancing listening, dialogue, imagination, among other learning that, in that space, lacked adequate supervision and a training that leads to theoretical-practical reflection of their doing as a trainee-playmaker.
