Abstract

The construction of physical knowledge is a relevant factor when we discuss the possibilities of forming critically autonomous subjects who, through investigative thinking, seek to solve various situations. Piaget (1896-1980), researching human development, attributed its construction to the relationship established between the subject and the objects of knowledge, and highlighted physical, logical-mathematical and social knowledge. This study focuses on aspects related to physical knowledge and its importance for young children's discoveries of the world from the perspective of constructivist scholar Constance Kamii. The role of the teacher in this process is also highlighted, since the situations he proposes and their interventions can lead to imbalances necessary for child development, raising the processes of assimilation, accommodation and balance, responsible for the alterations and/or constructions of mental structures. It is hoped that such reflections can contribute to the understanding of the constructivist approach, and thus support the teacher's conception of the need to provide students with meaningful experiences, in which they can act, observe and reflect, thus developing the investigative thinking, which endows the child of the curiosity necessary for him to continue researching and learning.
