PASSEGGI, Maria da Conceição et al. Narrativas de crianças sobre as escolas da infância: cenários e desafios da pesquisa (auto)biográfica. Educação. Santa Maria [online]. 2014, vol.39, n.01, pp.85-104. ISSN 1984-6444.
This study deals with 4-10 year-old children stories and analyses how they portrait their experiences at school. It is the outcome of an inter-institutional research project performed at schools in Natal, São Paulo, Recife, Niterói and Boa Vista. To collect data, we opted for conversations of children in groups of five, who would share a conversation with a little alien whose planet lacked schools. The analyses revealed consensus and tensions between scholar culture and childhood cultures, which affect the way children play and learn, make friends or not, remain children or not. When narrating, the child redefines his/her experience and contributes to seize the primary school as a place where he/she becomes (or not) a citizen.
