O presente estudo denominado Consciência Ambiental através das Artes, foi desenvolvido no âmbito da Unidade Curricular de Prática de Ensino Supervisionada do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar da Escola Superior de Educação e Comunicação, da Universidade do Algarve, no ano letivo 2023/2024, numa sala de Jardim de Infância de uma instituição privada em Vilamoura, no concelho de Loulé, distrito de Faro. No grupo, uma das crianças trouxe esta temática aos colegas, apanhar o lixo da praia. Desde logo, observou-se interesse por parte das crianças participarem, ativamente, numa recolha de lixo no exterior da instituição, tendo sido mesmo motivo de celebração cada saco recolhido. Facto esse, que justificou a pertinência de proporcionarmos atividades de arte por forma a responder a este interesse das crianças, o lixo e a consciência ambiental. Acreditando nas Artes como forma de aprendizagem e desenvolvimento humano, que potencia a criatividade, o pensamento e o raciocínio, permitindo a expressão livre, e ao mesmo, tempo motivando um processo natural de desenvolvimento das capacidades cognitivas, emocionais e motoras, decidiu-se realizar um estudo que vise associar estes conceitos ao desenvolvimento da consciência ambiental. Assim, a investigação decorreu numa sala com dezanove crianças, com idades compreendidas entre os quatro e cinco anos, sendo apenas selecionadas cinco de nacionalidade portuguesa, duas do sexo feminino e três do sexo masculino, todas com cinco anos. Para atingir os objetivos propostos, foi utilizada uma metodologia de cariz qualitativo, descritivo e interpretativo, com recurso à observação participante e à análise documental das suas produções. Os resultados evidenciam que a arte é um possível instrumento para desenvolver a Consciência Ambiental, pois a intervenção educativa direcionada promoveu transformações nas conceções das crianças, evidenciando o interesse de trabalhar as questões de cariz de consciência ambiental na educação pré-escolar.
This study, called Environmental Awareness through the Arts, was developed as part of the Supervised Teaching Practice curricular unit of the master’s degree in Pre-School Education at the University of the Algarve's School of Education and Communication, in the 2023/2024 school year, in a kindergarten room at a private institution in Vilamoura, in the municipality of Loulé, Faro district. In the group, one of the children brought up the topic of picking up litter from the beach. From the outset, the children were interested in actively taking part in a litter pick outside the institution, and each bag collected was a cause for celebration. This fact justified the relevance of providing art activities to respond to the children's interest in garbage and environmental awareness. Believing in the arts as a form of learning and human development, which enhances creativity, thought and reasoning, allowing free expression and at the same time motivating a natural process of developing cognitive, emotional and motor skills, we decided to create a study aimed at associating these concepts with the development of environmental awareness. The research took place in a classroom with 19 children aged between four and five years of age. Only five children of Portuguese nationality were selected, two females and three males, all 5 years of age. To achieve the proposed objectives, a qualitative, descriptive and interpretive methodology was used, using participant observation and documentary analysis of their productions. The results show that art is a possible tool for developing Environmental Awareness, as the targeted educational intervention led to changes in the children's conceptions, highlighting the interest in working on environmental awareness issues in pre-school education.
