Abstract

The playground itself is an educational space to learn and have fun, but to make this real it needs an intervention of the teachers with achievable objectives and clear and direct actions. However, it is essential the responsible participation of students. As we are unable to change the shape of the space we have searched for other educational opportunities through the materials. In this way we managed to change routines and to offer new opportunities for playing and also for the relationships.

The article describes the activities carried out in a school in order that the playground becomes a place of coexistence and learning opportunities for all students.
