This essay was produced in the perspective of defending the idea that Physical Education classes with Early Childhood Education can enable children to read the world critically, from the problematization of an ecology of knowledge historically built on body practices and the body. In addition, we problematize the relationship between movement and gesture, arguing that human gestures are endowed with meanings, being understood and reframed according to the culture of practitioners of dances, gymnastics, sports, fights, and games. Finally, we show that this epistemological advance in the area was given, among many particularities, by the Freirean theoretical foundation of reading the world, mainly because the curricular component is inserted in the area of Languages in Basic Education.
KEYWORDS: Physical Education. Child Education. Languages. Reading the World.
