Gramática e formação docente: uma oficina sobre substantivo para professores do ensino fundamental.

Abstract

This research has as general objective to collaborate for a continuous formation of teachers of the basic education through the structuring of a workshop on the substantive, anchored in the textual genres. In order to fulfill this objective, we list the concepts of the substantive noun for normative grammar and for the Mattosiana descriptive grammar; we selected the genders for the study proposal in the substantive name workshop; we structured a study workshop for teachers of the Elementary School on the name substantive from the genres. The research is based mainly on the theoretical postulates of the linguist Camara Jr (2011) and also in other theorists who approach the subject. Regarding to the nature of the work, the research can be called bibliographical, since it uses theoretical postulations already elaborated. The categories used to work with the noun were the three criteria defined by Camara Jr (2011): the morphic, which concerns the form of the words; the semantic, related to sense; and the syntactic, which refers to the function of words in relation to other terms. The research presents as final product a workshop directed to teachers of Elementary School, aiming to contribute to the teachers' performance regarding the substantive name. As a result of the research, we built a grammar workshop for teachers, in which we prioritize the work with the substantive name, without, however, refusing to study the other names (adjective and adverb). The workshop worked on the grammar, but through texts, which we believe will bring greater results to the learner with regard to language analysis.
