THE PLAYFUL AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES

Abstract

This paper aims to address the importance of play, games and special activities, turning each lesson into something motivating, fun and meaningful for every student, especially a group of students who showed demotivation in learning for several reasons. For this, it was necessary to seek to understand issues related to the difficulties in the literacy process, using ludic games as a facilitator resource to the student with learning difficulties in literacy process. The game can and should be used. Once to exercise it it awaken feelings of challenge, that may help in the competence to solve daily situations. Through the performing of this research, I concluded that facing a new world, with so many technology and innovations such as the Internet, cell phones etc., the current students are not motivated to learn and seated and behaved anymore, like twenty, thirty, forty years ago . It is necessary creative, innovative classes, especially when, unfortunately, the vast majority of schools, public and even private, do not have these interesting and advanced technologies yet such as the computer and the Internet.
