A RELAÇÃO ENTRE FAMÍLIA E ESCOLA NA COMUNIDADE DO POVO NOVO (RIO GRANDE/RS) PELA PERSPECTIVA DO DESENVOLVIMENTO BIOECOLÓGICO

Abstract

This paper aims to discuss the relationship between family and school in the community of the 3rd District of Povo Novo (Rio Grande / RS). A rural area, which has around eight thousand inhabitants and constitutes its economic base from activities related to livestock, agriculture and small businesses. To understand the relationship between family and school, semi-structured interviews were conducted with educators and family members of children from the 3rd year of elementary school, belonging to 3 public schools in the locality. The theoretical contribution used was the bioecology of human development, elaborated by Bronfenbrenner (2011). This postulates the fact that, during the process of human development, different social circumstances can affect the subjective characteristics of an individual. It is concluded in this article, that the bioecological theory can contribute to the understanding of the relationship between family and school, adding also to the process of teaching and learning of children.
