A GINÁSTICA COMO PRÁTICA FORMATIVA DA ESCOLA

Abstract

The human body is always in motion, exercising to survive and also to adapt to the environment. With that in mind, the human body is always doing gymnastics in many different ways. In the records of humanity we see that this practice can occur in a pedagogical and playful way or as a sport. Thus, the objective of the present study was to present gymnastics as a formative practice of the school in Physical Education classes and to clarify its benefits and contributions to the psychomotor and social development of the students. It was also sought to promote the training of the teacher so that he can confidently mediate the teaching relevant to gymnastics in the school environment. This is a qualitative bibliographical study, based on theorists such as Carmen Lucia Soares (1994), Vanessa Dias Possamai (2018), José Carlos de Freitas Batista (2010), to discuss the motor development and teaching practices. for the human formation of the school. Therefore, the process that has been involved since the systematization of gymnastics and its concepts was analyzed; the psychomotor and social development of the individual; a study on the documents and laws governing the teaching of the gymnastic body culture element in the Brazilian school: how the BNCC and the PCNs. At the end, it was made the reflection that it is essential to encourage praxis from the early years of the formation of the individual in Physical Education classes. With this work, we realize that both teacher education and the resources available at school need incentives and improvements.
