Sumario:Several studies demonstrate the importance of articulating children with the phenomenon of work, whereas they already had knowledge and opinions, by starting from their social experiences and the influences produced by socializing institutions. This study aimed to investigate the attributed meanings of work by children, from a private school in the city of Fortaleza – CE, by analyzing the repercussions on the process.

The school was pointed out as a way of increasing the future possibilities for this group of children, by showing that the “great” work is the one what would be built through the study. The necessary to expand the interview’s target audience is evidenced in order to discuss, from socially different places, the aspects of labor social division which produces new signification modes of this phenomenon, as well as to construct strategies of intervention which may contribute with the construction process promotes spaces of citizenship and social and political participation.
