Abstract

In her researches, Constance Kamii shows that principles of Jean Piaget's theory can be explored in the classroom, as long as the teacher shares the pedagogical and epistemological conception that aims at such principles. The environment and situations created by the teacher are determinant in the child's development, especially with regard to the principles based on autonomy, differentiation between physical, logical-mathematical and social knowledge and on the valorization of processes. Based on this understanding, the objective is to discuss the contributions of researcher Constance Kamii in working with children in the preschool period, mainly from the study of the work “Piaget for school education”. It is hoped that this article theoretically subsidizes reflections on the importance of planning a program based on Piagetian theory, especially in the development of activities with the little ones that generate cognitive imbalances and mobilize the structures of thought, using in their practice, with clear objectives, experiences and enhancing materials, challenging situations that prompt action.
