Dança como componente curricular nas aulas de educação física escolar

Abstract

This work aimed to investigate if and as in the school environment, elementary school physical education teachers used dance content in their classes. For the elaboration of the study, the qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research method was used and as a resource for data collection, a semi-structured interview was conducted directed to physical education teachers. Through the results, it was possible to perceive that teachers see dance as an important and essential content for the overall development of the student, however, the vast majority did not work on this theme in their classes, either due to lack of affinity or even for issues of physical structure. However, it was possible to notice that it was present in the institutions studied briefly, as a greater appearance in theoretical classes and often in commemorative dates.
