ESPAÇO FÍSICO DA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL

UMA REFLEXÃO

Abstract

The objective of this text , which is an excerpt from a master's research project being developed in the Graduate Program in Education (PPGEdu) at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul's Campo Grande campus, is, therefore, to contribute to discussions surrounding the physical space of early childhood education, starting with the following statement: Is the physical environment of early childhood education designed in an ergonomic way to encourage children's autonomy and sociability? Thus, the Critical Theory of Society will support the ongoing project's theoretical background. The research project is in phase of making datas, although there have already been visits to the campus related to studies. In addition to gathering documents and additional information from institutions examined, in Campo Grande, Mato Grosso do Sul, it is collecting photographic documentation of the physical settings of two early childhood education facilities. In this article, we will specifically give reflections on the standards of the area designated to early childhood education, emphasizing the importance of its structure and functioning for children's overall development.
