RESUMO

t: The Current study has had as an exploratory field an educational institutional that uses the PROEPRE (Programa de Educação Pré-Escolar e de 10 Grau) (Program of Preschool and Junior High School Education) and children aged 5 and 6 years have participated. .The central goal of this investigation was to know the social diversity present in their social environment, analyzing specifically what they say, think and judge about this subject. It was also studied the influence of family and society in the constitution of the ethnic identity of the child and its relationships with certain aspects that constitute the child personality, such as: self-esteem, self-image and self conception. The research focused the reality of such children, and their characteristics. It also focused the dynamic in the classroom and all the elements that involved the social experiences of the group. It was intended to insert, in this context of classroom, elements that would raise the approach by the children of the different ethnicities, such as: black dools, books of history that presented black characters, magazines, etc. and, among other direct and indirect forms of intervention, interviews were also made with the children and their families in order to beuer know the content of their thoughts and their beliefs towards the proposed problems. The qualitative analysis of the results of this case study was based on Piaget s theorical referential, that reveals an interdisciplinary characteristic. The results found confirm that the child thought is, very soon, characterized by a duality between what for him or her is subjective and what the colective ideology imposes, in a way that this laUer is capable of raising sequelas in the cognitive and affective development of the individual. It was observed that prejudiced ideologies, crystallized by society, affect self-esteem, self-image and self-conception of the black child. Although at this point of its development the child already identifies differences and similarities in its group, this perception is necessary, but not enough to develop negative attitutes between peers. Finally, one conclude that such sequelas in the child development may be, if not total, at least partially softened in the long or medium terms if the. school as an institution and the educator are alert, making available conditions for the children to express their thoughts and ideas towards facts, knowing the real history of their origins and being appraised and truly integrated to their society
