Abstract

This article presents the results on the use, representation, and expressions of identity of the child space from the perspective of the children that participated in a related study. In order to approach the identity constructions of the children, letters written by them were the base of this anthropological study. Two analysis references were adopted: the effect of the constructed spaces in which their day-to-day develops, in their expressions of representation; and the social practices, recognizable in the letters, which set off these scenarios. The results arise from the application of conceptual and methodological proposals, in which qualitative and quantitative strategies were combined to allow the creation of an analysis model designed specifically for this project.
