Abstract
In order to contribute to the debates related to the organization of teaching in the context of primary education, this article presents a theoretical analysis regarding the activity of study with a view to orienting both the teaching activity and the intervention of the school psychologist in this level of teaching. The pertinence of this discussion is linked to thesis that Education must assume as one of its guiding principles, the promotion of the main activity of each period of students life. This thesis is based on’t the conception that the main activity is that which enables the essential psychological changes in the personality of the subject in a certain period of his life and that, therefore, should be understood as a criterion for the organization of a school teaching that is approached from a humanizing and emancipatory perspective, since it begins to consider the specificities and needs of each period of human development as one of the guiding threads of its actions.
