The Organization of the Curriculum in Early Childhood Education Based on the BNCC

Summary

The Base Nacional Comum Curricular da Educação Infantil (BNCC) is an essential document to guide the educational process in Brazil, providing guidelines for the organization of the curriculum in the initial stage of education. In this article, we will address the importance of the BNCC in structuring the curriculum in Early Childhood Education, highlighting its application methodology and the expected results for the integral development of children. For this, we used the methodology of documentary studies, analysis of educational legislation and bibliographical review of research related to the subject. Based on the collection and systematization of data, an attempt was made to highlight the principles and objectives of the BNCC, its pedagogical guidelines and its contribution to structuring the curriculum at this stage of education. As a result, we identified that in the integral development of children, the BNCC aims to promote a holistic development of children, covering cognitive, socio-emotional, physical and cultural aspects; the proposal for a curriculum based on these guidelines seeks to ensure that all children have significant learning opportunities that are appropriate to their more flexible and contextualized stage of development, recognizing the importance of considering the particularities of each school context, valuing diversity cultural and regional; the guarantee of rights and equity, where this legislation establishes the learning rights that all children have in early childhood education, regardless of their origin, social condition or specific needs. By organizing the curriculum based on these rights, we seek to promote educational equity and combat inequalities, and play as a pedagogical principle, whose norm recognizes play as a form of expression, learning and child development. By organizing the curriculum based on this principle, the role of playing in the educational process is valued, providing playful and creative moments for children.
