A música no trabalho pedagógico com o bebê e a criança pequena na creche

Abstract

The research has as main theme the music in the pedagogical work with babies and young children, being covered based on the following problem question: what are the ways and meanings that music can have in the pedagogical work with the baby and young child in the daycare center? Considering the importance of pedagogical work with music since early childhood for the formation of the human being in an integral perspective, the study concerns arose from observations of working with music in a daycare center in the period from 2018 to 2020 in the city of Salto de Pirapora, São Paulo. The nature of the research is qualitative, being characterized as a case study, and consists of the following excerpts: the first chapter brings a memorial that reports the author's musical experiences from childhood to the moment of the construction of this work; Chapter II discusses the methodology; the third Chapter presents the theoretical framework in three parts, which are about the concept of the baby and the young child today, the possibilities of working with musical language in childhood and the importance of the repertoire of children and cultures of childhoods; in the fifth Chapter the analysis of the field observations is made. The research results point to the following main verifications: it is up to educators to provide children with moments of exploration of different materials and repertoires that contemplate the breadth of cultural diversity; pedagogical planning must recognize the child as a participant, creative and creative being; in order to build a humanizing education, the music practice at school should not be based on models on how to do, but rather encourage children to carry out their own research and exploration of the sonorous and musical universe.
