El juego como estrategia educativa: rol del docente en educación inicial y preparatoria

Abstract

This monograph has the goal to analyze play like an education strategy from the view of the teacher in early and preschool level. The research of this topic is very important, because play, like an education strategy, helps with full development of the children, in safe and trusting spaces. Also, it shows the role of the teacher like a guide and a helper during these activities, understanding the children like the main actors in the teaching and learning process. For this, we did a book review with a descriptive and explaining style, where we analyze two categories: play and education strategies. We found that play, when used like an education strategy, helps with the brain, social, emotional, and body development of the children, and inside play in the education area, the child is the main actor, learning in a natural way by the experiences that the play gives. Because of this, we say that play is one of the best education strategies in any age, because this is an activity where people learn in a natural way, especially in early childhood.
