Abordagem sociomaterialista na Educação infantil do Centro Integrado de Educação Infantil Antônio Joaquim de Morais em Santa Rita - PB

Abstract

Sociomaterialist Approach in Early Childhood Education refers to the pedagogical perspective that recognizes the interdependence between social and material practices in children's learning. This concept highlights that the physical environment, objects, social interactions, and activities work together in an integrated way to support the cognitive, emotional, and social development of young children. The general objective of this research is to identify the sociomaterialities present in the pedagogical practices of the Centro Integrado de Educação Infantil Antônio Joaquim de Morais in the municipality of Santa Rita, Paraíba. The methodological approach is qualitative, with exploratory, descriptive, and explanatory purposes, and includes both bibliographic and field research conducted at the Integrated Center for Early Childhood Education in the municipality of Santa Rita. This approach allowed for a deeper understanding of sociomaterialist perspectives within the spaces of the Early Childhood Education Unit. To this end, we analyzed the performance of toys, games, and play, as well as the use of space and interactions within the daily routines of the Integrated Early Childhood Education Center; we also interpreted human performances influenced by non-human elements (toys, games), and developed a manual to support the organization of spaces and pedagogical practices, considering the cultural diversity and individual needs of children in Santa Rita. It is concluded that recognizing sociomateriality broadens pedagogical possibilities in Early Childhood Education and contributes to the development of more sensitive, inclusive practices that are connected to the multiple ways children learn.
