QUESTIONS OF YOUNG CHILDREN: A TEACHER'S "PATH GROWERS"

Abstract

From the space and time in which we find ourselves, we express, interpret, and create the world through shared ideological signs. Young children have only recently arrived in this world and, perhaps for this reason, have fewer internalized models than adults do. Children question what for us is already given, opening possibilities for a new that is unexpected. This article aims to reveal how a teacher-researcher built understandings about what she experiences in the educational routine and the relationships established there with the questions of young children, who are in the same space as her, but will end up being in this world. The kindergarten teacher, when researching how she organized her work in the relationship with the children, wrote pedagogical narratives about her own practice and the relationships built in the educational routine. The interpretation of the narratives was carried out by comparing these texts with other texts and concepts, mainly from the Bakhtinian and Zambranian philosophies. We realize that young children's questions change our aesthetic perceptions, the way we interpret the world and, thus, our ethical acts and our knowledge can also change.
