Abstract

The research was to analyze methodological strategies that reinforce gender stereotypes in boys and girls at initial levels. This work was carried out in the province of Pichincha, Quito and Chillogallo. To carry it out, we analyzed the methodological strategies that teachers use for the performance of the class and how through them the gender stereotypes in the initial infants are reinforced; because it was evidenced different didactic sequences in which the strengthening of these stereotypes was reflected in a naturalized way. Next, a qualitative methodology was followed that consisted of obtaining information, analyzing and describing the data collected on the problem of reinforced gender stereotypes through methodological strategies and applied by the teacher in her educational work. The results of this research are analyzed in terms of the presence of gender stereotypes through the speech, the use of teaching materials and during the recreational and pedagogical activities, because infants are attributed a set of traits and representations about what or how their posture and behavior should be before certain events.
