Conhecimento matemático através da educação física na Educação Infantil

Abstract

Mathematical knowledge through the Physical Education in Early Childhood Education is the principal axis of this literature review study. From literature review about child development, especially in terms of development and learning interactionist perspective, characterized contributions that physical education can promote the development of mathematical ideas. Such contributions arise from the proposed activities that develop psychomotor factors involved in the formation of concepts and mathematical operations, while that nurture children their practical exercise, with the materials and the situations presented. The information in this study confirm the importance of developing motricity in school - because it is present in all learning processes, including the process of learning-formal education and to have a new perspective on the body and movement - for consideration for the human motricity can change the teachers' educational actions in any area of knowledge and provide a rich exchange of knowledge and experience, as in Mathematics and Physical Education.
