Afetividade nas relações educativas: uma abordagem na educação infantil

Abstract

The present work entitled "Affectivity in Educational Relations: an approach in early childhood education", proposes to explore the importance of affectivity in the educational context. It is based on the theories of authors such as Henri Wallon, Jean Piaget and Lev Vygotsky, who treat affectivity as an inseparable component of cognitive and social development of children. It aims to investigate the importance of affectivity in the school environment, focusing on interactions between teachers and students, verifying whether it facilitates the teaching-learning process. In the search for this answer, the methodology used was bibliographical research, with the intention of knowing the implications of affectivity in child development through the analysis of contributions from authors such as Piaget, Vygotsky and Wallon. This work is divided into two parts. In part I, entitled "Affectivity in Educational Relations: an approach to early childhood education", it presents concepts of affectivity, as well as approaches from scholars and official documents dealing with the subject. In part II, entitled "The Power of Care: report on affectivity in early childhood education", presents a report of experience in early childhood education in conversation with the ideas of the book "The universe of emotions: an introduction" by Elisa Gonsalves Possebon. From the analysis of official documents, books and articles of scholars, it was concluded that affectivity is a crucial factor in educational relations, which contributes to the construction of identity, autonomy and sense of social belonging of children.
