Narrativas em movimento: um convite às poéticas da dança na educação infantil

Abstract

This study seeks to investigate and analyze the moving narratives that were constructed from the relationship between the performing body and the creative process in Dance in the context of Early Childhood Education. The research was carried out in a Municipal Early Childhood Education Center in Contagem, Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte - MG, and its target audience was twenty children, between five and six years old. The artistic practice in Dance took shape and form during the research process itself, finding in the cartography an opening to contextualize what emerged in the dance workshop with these children. When articulating playing and dancing, several crossings emerged, during and after artistic practices, which were captured and mapped by me, namely: the way children understand the world, authorship, inventiveness, expressiveness, interactions and sharing. In the children's corpographies, narratives were inscribed that highlighted the doing/thinking of dance based on breaks, ruptures in pedagogical practice, which pushed them to transgress with their playful bodies, giving a strong nod to the teacher's availability for openness and acceptance of the way how they perceive the body/dance/world, expressed through their narratives when dancingplayingnarratingpoetizing.
