O ensino de música no contexto escolar de crianças dos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This work has as its object music in the school context of children from the early years of Elementary School. The theme arose from my concern during the period of mandatory curricular internship held in 2013, when I was struck by the absence of music in the daily lives of children.The research sought to understand why music is still ignored in some school contexts despite being an important component of children's cultural education. The work is divided into three chapters. The first chapter presents the Theoretical Framework. In order to carry out the task of investigating music in the school context of children of the Early Years, in this part of the work, the presence of music since the baby's life was studied; the training of pedagogues in the area of music; interdisciplinarity as an important dimension in school music education; the use of singing in pedagogical practices; the use of free materials in the creation of musical instruments, and the presence of music at school in general. The second chapter contains the research methodology, classified as qualitative and case study, with the constitution of a group of teachers, with whom interviews were conducted. In the third and last chapter, the analysis of the interviews is presented, relating them to the authors of the theoretical basis presented in the first chapter. The results point to the importance of the musical training of pedagogues, of teaching music for the healthy development of children and of pedagogical practices that involve music in school routine.
