A GINÁSTICA RÍTMICA E OS PRINCÍPIOS METODOLÓGICOS

Abstract

This study presents some contributions about methodologies and techniques arising from Rhythmic Gymnastics, in School Physical Education classes in the teaching-learning process. The general objective of this research is to identify the importance of methodologies and techniques that reflect on the GR classes in physical education classes, identifying the influence of play in this process. From the discussions raised, it is observed that the use of play in the teaching-learning of Rhythmic Gymnastics is a motivating element where the student can create the habit of practicing the modality later on. Many GR teaching bibliographies have their focus on teaching technique as the main (technicist), where repetition of fundamentals and techniques disconnected from the context of actual practices, such as the social context, is encouraged and taught. The methodology used is exploratory/bibliographic and expository/qualitative, in which we use some of the main bibliographical references on this topic. There are countless methodological possibilities when working with playfulness as a pedagogical/educational principle, as it expands the involvement of students in a pleasurable way in classes. Another aspect is the understanding of the internal logic and its identifying aspects of Rhythmic Gymnastics, as well as some specific techniques that allow for a better applicability, thus allowing students to become interested in this sport after this initial stage of learning.
