Tendo em vista a natureza curiosa da criança, levar brincadeiras, fazer passeios, propor pesquisas, ou até mesmo explorar o próprio ambiente da sala de aula e arredores pode ser uma experiência muito rica e produtiva para as crianças se mediado da maneira correta. Objetivando trazer uma reflexão a respeito de teoria de pensadores da área da educação, esse artigo tem como finalidade trabalhar o lúdico como uma ferramenta eficaz para o escolar enriquecendo cada vez mais o ambiente de sala de aula com o brincar que muito agrada a criança e a faz aprender melhor o conteúdo a ser trabalhado na educação infantil.

Resumo: A pandemia do Covid-19 trouxe notórias mudanças por todo o mundo, refletindo principalmente no contexto educacional, ao se ter como protocolo de segurança o fechamento das escolas, o que ocasionou o afastamento dos alunos de todas as fases de ensino, incluindo o Ensino Infantil. No que diz respeito ao Ensino Infantil se pode mencionar os impactos sentidos por essa modalidade de ensino, uma vez que a criança no seu processo de ensino e aprendizagem necessita do auxilio do professor de maneira presencial, por isso as formas de ensino surgidas no período de pandemia não se mostraram eficazes no Ensino Infantil, visto que o ensino remoto não contempla todas as dificuldades do alunado. Neste contexto, a escolha do tema se deu com o objetivo de analisar quais as mudanças referentes ao Ensino Infantil durante a pandemia da Covid-19, verificando assim como se deram as aulas durante esse período. A metodologia adotada foi uma pesquisa bibliográfica, de cunho qualitativo, que usou da pesquisa através de publicações para realizar o trabalho. A pesquisa apresentou como resultados diversas informações que sustentaram a hipótese levantada, de que as crianças tiveram notórias dificuldades em se adaptar as aulas remotas, levando em consideração o fato de que a escola não é um espaço apenas para a transmissão de conteúdos, sendo também o ambiente propicio para o desenvolvimento das relações interpessoais. Conclui se por tanto que no que tange o Ensino Infantil, as consequências do distanciamento das escolas, mesmo em face do cenário pandêmico, se tornam ainda mais atenuadas, uma vez que essas consequências quando não trabalhadas para serem revertidas, podem retardar todas as fases de ensino.                                                                                        Palavras-Chave: Educação; Ensino Infantil; Pandemia. Abstract: The Covid-19 pandemic brought notorious changes around the world, reflecting mainly in the educational context, by having as a security protocol the closing of schools, which led to the removal of students from all stages of education, including Kindergarten . With regard to Early Childhood Education, the impacts felt by this type of teaching can be mentioned, since the child in their teaching and learning process needs the help of the teacher in person, so the forms of teaching that emerged in the period pandemic did not prove effective in Kindergarten, since remote teaching does not cover all the difficulties of the students. In this context, the choice of the theme was made with the objective of analyzing the changes related to Kindergarten during the Covid-19 pandemic, thus verifying how the classes were held during this period. The methodology adopted was a bibliographical research, of a qualitative nature, which used the research through publications to carry out the work. The research presented as results several information that supported the raised hypothesis, that the children had notorious difficulties in adapting to remote classes, taking into account the fact that the school is not only a space for the transmission of content, but also the favorable environment for the development of interpersonal relationships. It is therefore concluded that with regard to Early Childhood Education, the consequences of distancing schools, even in the face of the pandemic scenario, become even more attenuated, since these consequences, when not worked to be reversed, can delay all phases of teaching.                                                                                                     Keywords:Education; Kindergarten; Pandemic.

At the age of 4-6 years old, the children enter the golden age because children quickly absorb things that are taught. At that age children enter kindergarten, which is a formal educational level in which special materials relating to early childhood are given in the form of stimulation, to help the growth and development of children, increase children's creativity, and help them to learn about various sciences through approaches to language, religion, society, emotions, the physical world, motor functions, cognition, language, arts and independence.

The collected data was analyzed with qualitative descriptive techniques. The results of the study indicate that the teacher can recognize the characters of students by paying attention to their daily habits, so that the teacher can find a course of action according to the character of the student. The teacher also implements some methods that can improve students' communication skills, namely by asking questions, telling stories, tourism work, role playing / socio drama, chatting and singing. The teacher must also be friendly, patient, and choose appropriate words so that students can understand and accept various well-taught material. In addition to the method above the teacher uses teaching aids as supports during the teaching and learning process. The obstacle that is often encountered by the teacher is pronunciation that is not yet clear, students have not understood the content of the conversation so that the teacher's efforts to improve their communication skills become a little hampered.    Keywords: Teacher Strategy, Communication Ability, Early Childhood
