Pensando a educação infantil a partir de imagens

This article focuses on the use of images in Early Childhood Education in the Municipal Education Network in Goiânia, Brazil. This writing exercise is concerned with questioning how children build images, in addition to thinking about how teachers in this stage of Basic Education have been using images as methodological resources. For this, we developed a brief study about the conception of child presented in the curriculum document of Goiânia for Early Childhood Education. We also conducted a bibliographic research based on the studies of Cunha (2007), Martins (2010) and Derdyk (2015) that address the use of images in early childhood education and the ways of thinking about drawing in early childhood education. Thus, we highlight the way in which images contribute to the construction of imaginaries and discuss their importance and potential in the teaching processes for children.
