TIRIBA, Léa  and  PROFICE, Christiana Cabicieri. TUPINAMBÁ CHILDREN: RIVERS, HILLS, SAND BANKS AND FOREST AS PLACES OF EVERYDAY PLAYING. Revista Teias [online]. 2018, vol.19, n.52, pp.28-47.  Epub Mar 10, 2020. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2018.30926.

The text present reaserch - intervention results on the process of indigenous schooling among the Tupinambá people of Olivença, especially with respect to affective interactions and attachment to nature. They guide the investigation of Espinosa and Guatarri conceptions, as well as concepts from the field of human-environment studies, such as attachment to place and biofilia. Partial analyzes reveal that play with nature occupies a prominent position in children’s lives; that school practices strengthen feelings of belonging to the natural world and the inventiveness of children, creators of their own artifacts; and that the Tupinambá nuclei of Early Childhood Education may inpire pedagogies committed to listening children and protecting all forms of life, not just human life.

Keywords : Tupinambá Children; Indigenous School Education; Nature’s Play.
