O presente relatório apresenta a descrição e a reflexão das experiências vivenciadas ao longo da Prática e Intervenção Supervisionada numa sala de Creche e numa sala de Jardim de Infância. Nestes contextos desenvolveu-se um estudo focado na promoção de hábitos alimentares saudáveis na Educação Pré-escolar, seguindo uma abordagem metodológica de investigação-ação, guiado pelos seguintes objetivos: verificar que conhecimentos possuem as crianças em relação aos alimentos; averiguar quais são as principais escolhas alimentares das crianças; observar o comportamento/reação das crianças face a determinados alimentos; promover hábitos alimentares saudáveis, através de estratégias pedagógicas contextualizadas e dirigidas às reais necessidades do grupo.
O estudo principal foi realizado com um grupo de 23 crianças de jardim de infância com idades compreendidas entre os 3 e os 6 anos. Foi concebido um modelo de entrevista para recolher informação sobre os conhecimentos, as preferências e os hábitos alimentares das crianças que permitiu identificar aspetos críticos sobre os quais se focaram as atividades de educação alimentar desenvolvidas. A análise e interpretação dos dados emergentes contribuiu para a compreensão do objeto de estudo e permitiu-nos reconhecer a importância de uma abordagem contextualizada, dirigida e sistemática no âmbito da educação alimentar.
A metodologia centrada na investigação-ação, enquanto estratégia de formação reflexiva, permitiu regular continuamente a ação através da recolha e análise dos dados emergentes. Esta abordagem metodológica contribuiu de forma marcante para a melhoria da nossa prática educativa, pois permitiu a construção e a reconstrução de competências pessoais e profissionais.
The present report presents the description and reflection of the experiences lived during the Practice and Supervised Intervention in a Nursery room and Kindergarten room. In these contexts we developed a study focused on the promotion of healthy eating habits in Pre-school Education, following a methodological approach of action-research, focusing on the following objectives: to verify what knowledge children have regarding food; find out what are the main food choices of children; observe the behavior/reaction of children to particular foods; promote healthy eating habits, through pedagogical strategies contextualized and directed to the real needs of the group. The main study was carried out with a group of 23 kindergarten children aged between 3 and 6 years. An interview model was designed to collect information regarding children's knowledge, preferences and eating habits that allowed the identification of critical aspects on which food education activities were then focused. The analysis and interpretation of the emerging data contributed to the understanding of the object of study and enabled us to recognize the importance of a contextualized, directed and systematic approach in the field of food education. The methodology focused on action-research, as a reflexive training strategy, allowing us to regulate the action continuously through the collection and analysis of emerging data. This methodological approach contributed in a striking way to the improvement of our educational practice, since it allowed the construction and reconstruction of personal and professional competences.
