Through literature, and lectures on the theme: Adaptation and Early Childhood Education: A relationship between child, family and school, it was found that the insertion process of adaptation, the child, the much discussed school environment, but still too delicate. It is a cautious, special and unpredictable period, which causes a number of changes, a marked step in the child's life, because it requires an adaptation to a new context, previously unknown. We understand that despite all the factors of surprise and anxiety, adaptation is also a learning period. Family, school and children discover about living, security, trust and explore new paths, seek strategies and find together the best ways. Therefore, the following text discusses the adaptation as a challenge to be properly addressed and debated by the school and the family, finding the means to go to the family and the child the necessary and fundamental confidence to be open to the possibility of create new emotional bonds with other adults and especially with other children, thus enabling the means for the child to face this process of adapting the best possible way.openAccessEducação InfantilAdaptaçãoFamíliaEscolabachelorThesisEducação
