BORTOLANZA, Ana Maria Esteves  and  FREIRE, Renata Teixeira Junqueira. Preschool and the National Curricular Common Base: conceptions of child, development and curriculum. Sér.-Estud. [online]. 2018, vol.23, n.49, pp.67-96. ISSN 2318-1982.  https://doi.org/10.20435/serie-estudos.v23i49.1138.

This study results from a bibliographical and documentary research on the conceptions of children, children’s development and curriculum present in the National Curricular Common Base for Early Childhood Education (BNCC, 2017). It analyses, mainly, the curricular axes denominated in the BNCC as Field of Experiences seeking to understand the theoretical bases that guide the organization of the document, from the contributions of Vygotsky on child development in a process of appropriation of the human qualities through the activity, therefore the development of human singularity is based on social interactions. Studies of Kramer, Kishimoto and other authors constitute the bibliographical references of this research. BNCC presents a conception of children as a historical-cultural subject, however the document contains fragilities and requires a deepening of the areas of knowledge identified as Fields of Experiences. It is pointed out as fundamental the necessity of studies and discussions on the conceptions of children and child development for the curricular organization and for the formation of teachers who act or who intend to act in Early Childhood Education.

Keywords : childhood; Preschool; National Common Curricular Base.
