Contribuição da música para a aprendizagem na educação infantil.

Abstract

This work is a research that has as its subject of study the contributions of music to learning in Early Childhood Education. Therefore, I seek to investigate the following study problem: How do Early Childhood Education teachers work with music in the reference room as a didactic-pedagogical instrument? The general objective of this work is to analyze the contributions of music to the children's learning process at school. The specific objectives are: Point out the ways in which music can contribute to children's learning by working in a didactic-pedagogical way; Highlight the perceptions and work of teachers in relation to the use of music in Early Childhood Education; Describe the way teachers work with music in Early Childhood Education. The theoretical framework of the research was built based on the ideas of authors who discuss the topic studied, such as: Firmino and Ribeiro (2022), Godoi (2011), Silva et.al. (2022), Lima and Sant’Anna (2015). As for the methodology adopted, it is characterized as qualitative and exploratory in nature. The instrument adopted for data collection was a structured interview, with open and closed questions, aimed at four teachers who teach at a public Early Childhood Education institution in the city of Pombal-PB, located in the high backlands of Paraíba. Data analysis showed that the four teachers participating in the research have intensely positive perceptions about the use of music in early childhood education and use it as a playful tool and facilitator of the children's learning process, being a resource that facilitates children's learning and promotes a more pleasurable experience in the reference room, providing numerous contributions to children's development in terms of cognition, socialization, affection and playfulness.
