Este relatório surge de uma pesquisa no âmbito do Mestrado em Educação Pré-Escolar do
Instituto Universitário Ciências Psicológicas, Sociais e da Vida e da Escola Superior de
Educadores de Infância Maria Ulrich (ISPA/ESEIMU) tendo como finalidade a obtenção do
grau de Mestre em Educação Pré-escolar.
Trata-se de uma investigação qualitativa, onde o objetivo é evidenciar as propriedades holísticas
de uma horta pedagógica em contexto de jardim de infância. A horta remete-nos para o espaço
exterior, leva-nos a refletir sobre o ambiente e faz com que as crianças sejam estimuladas de
forma global. Para que esta investigação fosse possível partimos de uma revisão da literatura
onde foram analisados vários autores, do qual surgiu um modelo de análise adotado para
evidenciar as potencialidades de uma horta pedagógica. Através da utilização de alguns
instrumentos: a observação participante e a não participante (notas de campo, registos
fotográficos, diário de estágio e registos áudio).
Analisados os resultados é possível averiguar que apesar de alguns desafios apresentados pelo
espaço exterior e pela horta pedagógica, são evidentes os benefícios para as crianças, para os
adultos e para a instituição.
Conclui-se, com este estudo, que os educadores têm um papel fundamental no que respeita à
dinamização do espaço exterior e consequentemente da horta pedagógica. É necessário um
investimento por parte dos profissionais para que seja possível ultrapassar os desafios da horta
e transmitir aos encarregados de educação todos os benefícios da mesma. Acima de tudo é
necessário acreditar nos seus ideais.
This report is based on a research carried out under the Master's Degree in Pre-School Education of the University Institute of Psychological, Social and Life Sciences and of the Higher School of Childhood Educators Maria Ulrich (ISPA / ESEIMU). Pre-school education. This is a qualitative research, where the objective is to highlight the holistic properties of a pedagogic garden in a kindergarten context. The garden brings us to outer space, compels us to reflect on the environment and children are stimulated globally. For this to be possible, we started with a review of the literature where several authors were analyzed, from which a model of analysis was developed to highlight the potentialities of a pedagogical garden. Through the use of some instruments: participant and non-participant observation (field notes, photographic records, training diary and audio recordings). Analysing the results it is possible to see that despite some challenges presented by outer space and the pedagogic garden, the benefits for children, adults and the institution are evident. It is concluded, with this study, that educators have a fundamental role in the dynamization of outer space and consequently in the pedagogical garden. There is a need for investment by professionals so that it is possible to overcome the challenges of the garden and convey to the caretakers all the benefits of it. Above all you must believe in your ideals.
