Del cómo los niños y las niñas tejen sus mundos a través del juego

Abstract

Inscribed within the qualitative methodology, with a hermeneutic phenological approach, this research is aimed to understand the way in which children create their realities by listening to the children's narratives that arise in the game. The research is developed with a group of children between 4 and 5 years old, taking the kindergarten grade in the District Educational Institution, Colegio San José, located in the locality of Kennedy in the city of Bogotá. Through observation, access was gained to play spaces where participants spontaneously established communicative exchanges within the play activity. These experiences were recorded through video recordings that were later transcribed and analyzed from the heterogeneity of uses and forms that children use to position themselves in the world through their discourses. It is recognized from this research that play provides spaces for interaction among children, at the same time language allows sustaining these exchanges and creating the plots that form their narratives. This communicative bridge between play and language favors the development of vital experiences for them.
