O brincar como ferramenta de desenvolvimento experiências na Apae Sobral

Abstract

This study aims to report the experiences of the Práxis group, composed of scholarship holders from the Tutorial Education Program (PET) of the Pedagogy Course at UVA, at the Association of Parents and Friends of Exceptional Children in the city of Sobral, Ceará. The main objective of PET is to promote formative and collaborative actions that integrate theory and practice in partner spaces, strengthening the academic and social performance of the scholarship holders. This study focuses on the scholarship holders’ perspective on children’s play in the psychopedagogy room and how this activity can serve as a tool for child development, reflecting on what the child learns and demonstrates while playing. The pedagogical activities were carried out with children aged 4 to 12 years diagnosed with intellectual or multiple disabilities, or neurological development disorders, with emphasis on Autism Spectrum Disorder. Dialogue with the psychopedagogue responsible for the sessions was essential for conducting the study.
