CASSULLA, Marcella Hauanna  and  FAUSTINO, Rosangela Celia. GUARANI NHANDEWA INDIGENOUS CHILDREN IN NORTHERN PARANÁ: CULTURAL AND ACADEMICAL LEARNING. Revista da FAEEBA: Educação e Contemporaneidade [online]. 2019, vol.28, n.54, pp.59-76.  Epub July 10, 2019. ISSN 2358-0194.  https://doi.org/10.21879/faeeba2358-0194.2019.v28.n54.p59-76.

The indigenous child, in the socio-cultural organization of each people, has own ways of learning receiving care, guidance and permanent attention from relatives. In the Nhandewa culture, all village spaces are children’s learning spaces. The elders, the tudjás, the txamõi and the djaraí, knowing the traditions, pass it on to the new generations in auspicious situations and spaces, like Oy Guatsu. In this text we present and discuss elements of the education of the Guarani Nhandewa child observed and recorded, especially in their experiences in cultural events in indigenous lands in the north of Paraná. It was evidenced that Nhandewa teachers have sought to articulate the schoolastic knowledge with the ancestral knowledge, in the school space and in non-school spaces such as the cultural events in the villages, configured like moments of significant learning for the Guarani children.

Keywords : Indigenous childhood; Guarani Nhandewa child; Educational systems.
