Abstract

The present article reports on a formative experience of three masters students in pre-school education and elementary school education. The students used the Independent Learning Development List (CHILD) as an instrument to support the pedagogical practice in their curricular internship in kindergarten and school contexts. Through the analysis of their narratives recorded in logbooks, we were able to ascertain the potentialities of this instrument in the investigation of the practice itself, reflection and formation. The students considered this formative approach important because it contributed to provide effective and essential opportunities for the development of self-regulation skills adjusted to the needs of children from 5 to 7 years of age in school transition. It is suggested that future teachers should experience, during their initial formation, the theoretical and experiential knowledge of the construct of self-regulated learning so that they intentionally promote it in the school context from an early age with the children.
