The present work is associated to the research line: Teachers Training, Knowledge and Professional development and has as main objective to investigate some of the representations that a group of five teachers has about to use the playing as a pedagogical resource. These teachers, two of them majored in Physical Education and three of them in Pedagogy, work with beginners classes of the Elementary School of private and public schools, respectively, in Santa Maria city/RS. From their reports about the playing in their own infancy, (in the school area or out of it); during their graduation; at the beginning of their professional career; and, nowadays, with their students. I tried to analyze their talking and placed it in dialogue with the ideas of the author from Chile Humberto Maturana. For that, the resource used for the production of the information was half structured interview. I found out that the teachers remember easily of the playing they played on the streets, in their yards and at their relatives house. However, it is less often the remembrance of the playing played at school. It was possible to notice that, in the period that they were majoring in Education, a few subjects of their curriculum had given opportunities to talk about playing or experiencing it, the most of them was relating to the technical learning. The playing has been understood by the teachers as a resource, method or strategy to a specific purpose. Thus, the playing has as objective function to discipline and to orient the students to the learning of something, as example the alphabetization or the acquisition of motor abilities a lúdica way to the learning of the school tasks. The playing is also associated to didactic games, played in the classroom, or to sportive games played in the yard or in the gym, This way, I conclude that in relation to the teachers training, the teachers initiative was always an important factor to the self learning and to the self training. Maybe, even more than the initial graduation. Many of the professional experiences as teachers go ahead from the school experience or as a University student, because there are other spaces of particular meaning that were important in their trajectory - what had influenced directly in their current pedagogical practices. Besides the teachers will criticize the aspect of the competition present in the classes and the emphasis given to the cognition, I noticed that there is a big difficulty to the modification to the understanding about playing, once they have been trained and graduated in this perspective. Those aspects difficult to recognize the playing as an educative resource: that the child could accept the other person as legitimate in the living. I believe that the teachers can create new spaces of living with reciprocal acceptation of their students, producing a dynamic in what they could change/ transform themselves together and in harmony. This way, the curriculums can be organized again, in order to work with their emotions and sensibility to a human and solidarity, based on the love. So, the playing could be noticed as a human fundament , as says Maturana, who was reference in this research.
