The didactic-pedagogical transformation of gymnastics for children by the “play and self-moving”

Abstract

The present text discusses theoretical and philosophical elements based on “play and move” as a pedagogical possibility of a subject-centered Physical Education, with a view to expanding the existential field. The goal is to expand knowledge about gymnastics practice that presupposes awakening new meanings and meanings of children, recognizing that human action weaves relationships of meanings to and with the world, through experiences that refer to the meanings attributed by the being that moves. Considering that human action is loaded with intentionality and connection between body and world, a gymnastics is defended that fosters the realization of body experiences through problem solving and the participation of children in classes with autonomy, creativity and freedom, allowing constitute them other senses in what they do, think and feel, dialoguing with the world in a healthy adventure that invites them to develop in the course of infinite possibilities of action.
