Cultura e comunicação : o pensamento sistêmico em saúde para crianças da educação infantil

Abstract

The educational units act directly in the training of thousands of children and adolescents, with teachers having an important role, which is to work towards meaningful, innovative and transformative teaching. In early childhood education units (day care centers, Cmei, Ceic) among others, they are no different. Educators work with a single purpose, to bring knowledge and learning to their students. Early childhood education caters to an age group in which children begin to receive their first information outside the family context, in this phase, they begin to prepare for entering school activities and begin to have new means that help in their development process and learning. At that moment, the teacher acts as one of the main mediators of the new changes that begin to occur with the children, working with them on themes aimed not only at literacy and literacy, but also activities related to the reality of each one of them. The objective of this work is to understand what kindergarten children's perception is about a more systemic view of health, to verify how teachers deal with the Health theme and to know what perception they have about systemic thinking in health: human health, animal health and environmental. The methodology used for the elaboration of the research is based on bibliographical studies on communication and culture, early childhood education and health, formulation of a systemic project on health together with teachers, interviews with the teaching staff, design as a research method and conversations with the children about the drawings. It is believed that it was also possible to contribute to the pedagogical practices of the participating teachers, who, in turn, will be able to take to the units that they cover all the learning obtained from this research, which is not finished, but which could contribute to greater depth. and even as inspiration for future researchers.
