Constituindo sensibilidades na educação física: um projeto de ensino com olhar humano

Abstract

The work proposes a school Physical Education that prioritizes sensitivity as an essential element in the training of students and in the educational environment. Based on the author's personal experiences and starting from a theoretical review, this study highlights the need to break up with authoritative and disciplinary practices that inhibit emotions and human relationships in the school environment. To this end, a qualitative research-teaching project entitled “Sinto, logo sou” (I feel, therefore I am) was carried out with three 1st grade classes. Divided into three strands – “Fair Play”, “Me and Differences” and “Emotions” - the project aimed to encourage reflection in order to build more sensitive and humane relationships. This study points out that collaborative activities and a careful eye for students’ differences and emotions can turn conflicts into learning opportunities and foster a more inclusive school environment. It also reinforces the importance of pedagogical practices that value the sensitivity as a pillar for a transformative education. This work also contributes to the field of Physical Education by proposing a pedagogical model that prioritizes humanization, valuing diversity and building meaningful relationships in the school context.
