affect the learning process in the educational institution of the municipality of
Francisco Pizarro-Salahonda Nariño.
Taking into account that from a pedagogical concept, healthy school coexistence
contemplates adaptation, attention and accommodation of students, this means that
appropriate learning in the regular classroom is essential to deliver didactics and
pedagogical strategies from a perspective of inclusive culture that prioritizes races,
religions, situations of disability, values and differences, so that teaching practices in
education have a fundamental impact on the construction and transformation of the
human being.
With regard to the above, Robayo et al. (2021)emphasize that:
The insecurity within the educational institutions affects in some way the tranquility
of the students and even the teaching staff. The term, although uncommon or
unknown to many people, (school violence) has been lived since many decades ago in
Colombia and in many countries such as the United States, France, Germany or the
United Kingdom. In this way, Colombian educational institutions where the presence
and actions of people who without any justification are involved for the bad
development of teaching and learning activities have been evidenced, in this way a call
is made to the public forces or implementation of a security scheme inside and outside
the context, which somehow propitiates the entry of short pulsating weapons and in
some cases firearms. consequently, these people generate chaos, school violence, fear
and a sense of uneasiness among classmates. (p. 5)
On the other hand, in the family structure we frequently see the abandonment of the
home by the father or the mother, where they are replaced by stepfathers, stepmothers,
and a large number of mothers who are heads of household, it is therefore important
to ask teachers about the possibility of addressing other strategies to address this type
of problem that somehow harms the entire school.
It is then that we saw the obligation to intervene and improve this problem by turning
to the game as a possible pedagogical strategy to strengthen school coexistence in such
a way that teachers were facilitated to attend and include in a dynamic and reliable
way all children, thus achieving the development of their abilities, cognitive and
participatory skills and enjoying a meaningful, integral and quality learning.
In the words of Gallardo (2018), he states:
Play contributes to the physical, motor, cognitive, affective, social, emotional and
moral development of children, that is, to their integral development. Therefore, play
must be present throughout the child's life. Without it, children would not be able to
