A INFLUÊNCIA DE TRADIÇÕES RELIGIOSAS NA PRÁTICA DAS AULAS DE EDUCAÇÃO FÍSICA: UM ESTUDO DE CASO EM UMA ESCOLA ESTADUAL DE CARIACICA-ES

Abstract

The present study aims to investigate the influences of religious traditions on student participation in the Physical Education curricular component. The subject, despite being current, is still very little explored in our country. However, it is a topic of great relevance, as this study is able to consider aspects such as the view of body and health, social interactions and the challenges faced by teachers in adapting Physical Education classes to religious precepts. The methodology used was bibliographic review and case study, with interviews with students from the State School of Elementary and Secondary Education, Maria de Lourdes Poyares Labuto, in the city of Cariacica-ES. Based on the research results, it was possible to obtain a more in-depth understanding of the influence of some religious traditions on the practice of Physical Education classes, identifying challenges, potential and possible strategies to improve the pedagogical approaches adopted within the school environment. In this way, the research contributes to the development of more meaningful, respectful and inclusive Physical Education classes, considering the cultural and religious diversity present in educational institutions.
