Resumo
Resumo: O presente estudo assenta na problemática referente à valorização da Educação Física pelos professores do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e visou apurar os conhecimentos que os docentes possuem acerca dos conteúdos de Educação Física e percecionar de que forma os desenvolvem nas suas práticas pedagógicas, assim como identificar os entraves com que os professores se deparam no ensino da Educação Física e verificar se as Atividades de Enriquecimento Curricular (Atividades Físicas e Desportivas) e a componente de coadjuvação possuem implicações na (des)valorização da Educação Física curricular. Recorreu-se à entrevista individual semiestruturada, organizada a partir de um conjunto de 16 questões efetuadas a 10 professores do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico, de 2 agrupamentos de escolas do distrito de Viseu. Os docentes reconhecem a importância da Educação Física para o desenvolvimento integral da criança; do ponto de vista da sua lecionação, não a valorizam apontando, como principais causas, a falta de recursos materiais e espaciais e a formação pessoal insuficiente, assim como a falta de segurança sentida na sua formação; os docentes defendem modelos de coadjuvação por um professor especializado na área. Apesar da preocupação depositada pelos docentes neste contexto, pois consideram a Educação Física de extrema importância para o desenvolvimento integral da criança, sendo indispensável a sua prática em contexto escolar, não a lecionam de forma significativa acabando por, na prática, a desvalorizar. Palavras-chave: Aprendizagens Essenciais; Atividades Físicas e Desportivas; Crianças; Educação Física; Escola.
This study aimed to analyze how the disciplinary field of Physical Education is valued by Basic Education teachers, seeking to assess the knowledge that teachers possess regarding the contents of Physical Education, perceive how they integrate them into their pedagogical practices, identify the obstacles that teachers face in teaching Physical Education, and verify whether Curricular Enrichment Activities (Physical and Sports Activities) have implications on the (de)valorization of Physical Education. A semi-structured individual interview approach was adopted, organized around a set of 16 questions conducted with 10 Basic Education teachers from 2 school clusters in Viseu’s district. Teachers acknowledge Physical Education’s importance for children holistic development; however, from a teaching perspective, they do not value it, citing as main causes the lack of material and spatial resources, insufficient personal preparation, and a perceived lack of security in their training; teachers advocate for adjuvated models by a specialized teacher in the field. Despite the concern expressed by teachers, as they consider Physical Education extremely important for children’s holistic development and essential for practice in the school context, they do not teach it significantly, ultimately leading to its devaluation in practice. Keywords: Children; Essential Learnings; Physical Education; Physical and Sports Activities; School.
