LIMA, Elieuza Aparecida de  and  VALIENGO, Amanda. Ensino fundamental de nove anos: articulações necessárias com a educação infantil. Educ. Puc. [online]. 2012, vol.17, n.01, pp.33-41. ISSN 1519-3993.

This article leads to reflect on the analysis of contexts of early Childhood Education and Elementary School concerning the space for playtime in the educational routine with groups of children between five and six years old. There was a reflection on official documents about the extension of Elementary School and the presuppositions from the Cultural- -Historical Theory. Actions related to bibliographical research, questionnaire application, photographic and written documentation of playful practices observation, collective meetings with teachers and construction of a toy library have been taken. Specifically on the studied aspect, the make-believe play is the main child activity and may be considered as a mediator from the learning and from the humanization possibilities until about six years old. With this understanding, this issue deserves attention from the government (expressed in public policies), from the teachers and from the school staff in order to offer better conditions of success on the full formation during childhood.

Keywords : Playtime; Early Childhood Education; Nine-Year Elementary School; Continuing Education for Teachers;; Cultural-Historical Theory.
