He presented some educational alternatives that had the objective of stimulating the construction of pedagogic actions to promote the social development of the student based upon a work centered on the free expression as the way to self-structure the knowledge. With a permanent proposal of research based on the enquiry-based learning, Freinet set human capacity (cognitive, social-affective, psychometrical) taking cooperation in consideration on the processes of knowledge construction. Based on this referential, this present work has the objective to show Freinet s pedagogy in a continuous teaching action from 2nd to 5th grade focusing the teacher s discourse and also the educative practice of the students of a city public school in Natal. The observed work revealed the teacher s discourse and educative experience and delineated the students development while immersed into Freinet s educational practice. By virtue of the nature and specificity of the theme that guided our research, we chose a qualitative approach to it, as a way of conducting ourselves during our investigative process. We observed and analyzed the method that was used to conduct the activities in the classroom, as well as the ways of expression that the children used through drawings, words (oral text), or through writing. We highlight, among the written texts, the individual and collective texts, and also letters and notes, which during some moments served as a base to express a diversity of languages. The results, after a analyzing the research data, point towards a teaching practice that favors the construction of a significant learning process through the grasping of the school environment, on which all these factors are based: society, knowledge acquisition, abilities, attitudes and values. This learning process also strengthens human solidarity bonds and mutual tolerance, on which the student s social life is seated. / C?lestin Freinet foi um dos educadores marcantes do s?culo XX, que apresentou alternativas educacionais que objetivavam favorecer a constru??o de a??es pedag?gicas para o desenvolvimento social do educando, atrav?s de um trabalho centrado na livre express?o, como forma de auto-estrutura??o do conhecimento. Com uma proposta permanente de pesquisa a partir do tateamento experimental, Freinet situa o desenvolvimento das capacidades humanas (cognitivas, socio-afetivas, psicomotoras) levando em considera??o a coopera??o nos processos de constru??o do conhecimento. A partir desse referencial, o presente trabalho tem como objetivo mostrar a atua??o da Pedagogia Freinet numa a??o docente continuada do 2? ao 5? ano, enfocando o discurso da docente e a pr?tica educativa das crian?as de uma escola p?blica da rede estadual de ensino da cidade de Natal. O trabalho revela o discurso e a viv?ncia educativa da professora com a Pedagogia Freinet e delineia o desenvolvimento dos alunos dentro dos pressupostos freinetianos da pr?tica educacional. Em virtude da natureza e especificidade da tem?tica que norteia a nossa busca, optamos por uma abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa para nos conduzirmos no referido processo de investiga??o. Neste sentido, observamos e analisamos a forma de condu??o das atividades na referida sala de aula, bem como as formas de express?es infantis das crian?as atrav?s do desenho, da palavra (texto oral) ou da escrita, destacando nesta ?ltima inst?ncia os textos individuais e coletivos, correspond?ncias e bilhetes, que, em alguns momentos, serviram como base para express?o de m?ltiplas linguagens. Os resultados analisados na referida pesquisa nos apontam uma pr?tica de ensino que favorece a constru??o de uma aprendizagem significativa atrav?s da compreens?o do ambiente escolar, no qual se fundamenta a sociedade, a aquisi??o de conhecimentos, habilidades, atitudes e valores, e tamb?m o fortalecimento dos la?os de solidariedade humana e de toler?ncia rec?proca em que se assenta a vida social do educando
