Our society has been witnessing great leaps in development and changes in short periods of time. These changes directly reflect on our understanding and organization of educational institutions.
An example of these changes in the field of education is how the National Common Curricular Base (BNCC) organizes early childhood education: through fields of experience and learning objectives, understanding that it is essential to ensure the integral and harmonious development of the child in their different areas: physical, motor, emotional, affective, social, and cognitive.
Another important aspect of the BNCC is that the document proposes interaction and play as a structuring axis for Early Childhood Education. Play is not just a fun pastime for children; it is an essential part of their healthy and integral development.
Considering all these aspects, what is the best strategy for teachers in this segment? The AZ Platform organizes the pedagogical work of Early Childhood Education based on the assumptions of the project methodology. Have you heard of this methodology?
The project methodology is an educational approach that puts children at the center of the learning process, allowing them to investigate, explore, and build knowledge actively and engagingly, significantly enriching the children's development process.
This is a powerful educational approach that can transform children's learning experience because by adopting this approach, we can create a stimulating, student-centered learning environment that promotes the integral development of children and prepares them to become lifelong learners.
Below are some benefits of the project methodology:- Develops autonomy and student leadership
- Promotes engagement and motivation
- Development of physical, cognitive, social, and emotional skills
- Meaningful learning through experience

Together, we can ensure that children grow up happy, healthy, and well-prepared to face the challenges of the world around them.
