O impacto das políticas municipais na formação de leitores em Camalaú-PB.

Abstract

This study analyzes the impact of municipal public policies on the formation of readers in Camalaú, PB, aiming to understand how the implemented actions have contributed to children's cognitive development through reading. The research, based on a qualitative approach, involved interviews with administrators, teachers, and parents to capture perceptions and challenges in the execution of reading incentive policies. The results show that programs such as the LEEI Program (Reading and Writing in Early Childhood Education), the National Literate Child Commitment (CNCA), and Alfabetiza Mais Paraíba play a strategic role in promoting literacy and encouraging reading from an early age. However, challenges such as low family participation, lack of books at home, and some teachers’ resistance to applying reading methodologies were identified as obstacles to the full development of this practice. The study concludes that strengthening public reading policies requires integrated actions between school, family, and government, promoting a more structured and accessible reading environment for students.
