| Sumario: | This article presents part of a dissertation study that had as its main objective to investigate how English Language classes in the elementary schools researched were characterized. The research was carried out in public schools in two cities located in São Paulo state. Observations on how teachers performed their pedagogical work, from the planning of their activities to their development in class were performed. In this article we will discuss about playfulness, mentioned by teachers themselves as one of the characteristics present in English classes for children. We observed how playfulness was approached during the activities applied during data collection. The results showed that playing may contribute to the process of teaching and learning, as long as these types of activities are well linked to English teaching. |
