This article describes part of the doctorate research study, supported by the historical-cultural approach. The research analyzed the interference of pedagogical intervention in role-playing for the psychic development of twenty children from a pre-school class. The methodology was an intervention research and the data came from participant observation, in-field record notebook, photographs and filming. The results proved that the adequate pedagogical intervention in role-playing promotes the level of playing and the development of the child psyche. Thus, the thesis confirmed was that "the intervention of the preschool teacher in role-playing should not be limited to the circumscription of the previous organization of spaces and materials for the effective play of the children. In addition, it is up to this teacher to intervene indirectly and directly on this kind of activity, in order to promote the advancement of the level of role-play and, consequently, the psychic development of the pre-school child". This way, the research clarified the dialectic movement caused by the elements involved in the simultaneity of the advances of the level of playing and the infant psyche, which serves as a support for the theoretical formation and the constitutionimprovement of the pedagogical praxis of the children's education teachers and students of pedagogy courses and related areas.

This paper aims to establish the possible dialogue between the writings of Theodor Adorno and Paulo Freire, with a view to emancipatory education. Therefore, we start with the following question: What is the possible dialogue between emancipatory education in Adorno and Freire? The methodology used was bibliographic research, based from the collating of works by Adorno and Freire, as well as the material produced about the authors. It is concluded that both Adorno and Freire fought the capitalist society of their time and that both were against the alienation of man; hence, human emancipation was a common concern among these classics. The analysis carried out indicates that emancipatory education, in Adorno and Freire, presents some fundamental axes, which will be presented throughout the text. The central focus in Adorno's theory is social formation, however, education is also pursued, given that social deformation is reflected in school. In Freire, we have educations. In this sense, we imply that emancipatory education, both in Adorno and in Freire, impels the individual to move against the grain of heteronomy and protected thinking imposed by society, with a view to the process of liberation, autonomy, and awareness. Human emancipation, therefore, is a process. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
