RESUMO

The purpose of this study is to investigate the understanding of preschool educators about the movement of the childs body. To this end we did a qualitative research which the theorical and methodological were through the studies of Henry Wallon. He relates the human development in a general vision including the motor-affective-cognitive dimension and their results in a psychological perspective. This author concentrates on studying small children in a genetic psychology. He looks for the meanings of these phenomena in their origins. This research was made in a municipal preschool in the city of Juiz de Fora. Five children educators of children, between the ages of 2 and 3 years old, were the subject of this research. The methodological tool was the observation of five activities with children cared out by the educators. These activities were previously recorded in videos and discussed in weekly sessions. We could analyze these videos and sessions finding out how important the body movement for children is. Only one educator gave us an account of the body/mind dichotomy and the motor containment connecting to the conceptions of the infancy and the child present in the society. The training of our educators is for the elementary school and not concerning to the specificities of small children
