Abstract

An investigation on the use of ludic activities in the classroom was carried during a school semester with a group of children ages 4 to 5, at a day-care center belonging to Florianópolis Municipal School District. The focus of the investigation was to observe what kind of social relations would emerge among the children while playing make-believe games; this required the use of a specific kind of research known as Action-Research. In the small society formed by the children as they played (the happenings of which were registered in a research journal), it became evident that, disagreements notwithstanding, what prevailed was the search for cooperative work, the establishment of partnerships and the organization of work-groups.
