A contação de histórias como prática de letramento: um processo de retextualização do cordel para a contação de histórias.

Abstract

This research purpose to reflect on the relevance of the work with the retextualization in the textual production of new genres. The theories that support it, are mainly based on the studies developed by Soares (2010), Marcuschi (2001), Dell'Isola (2007), Fiorussi (2003) and Kleiman (2010). As far as the methodology is concerned, it is a bibliographical research, based on books, dissertations and academic articles, under a qualitative approach. When it comes to the universe of research, it is directed to readings about the process of retextualization, literacy, textual genres, cords and storytelling. Through the studies carried out, we could perceive the importance of the process of retextualization, in the perspective of literacy, for the development of orality and writing, through the textual genres, in the classroom. This is presented as a process of acquisition of knowledge and construction of new texts, in which not only the explicit theme in the text, but also the previous knowledge of each student that can enrich their understanding must be considered. In addition, it allows the students to expose their experiences and artistic expressions, in a spontaneous and pleasurable way as the act of retelling, listening and inventing. In order to contribute to the pedagogical practice of the teacher, with regard to the work with orality and writing, we made a proposal of intervention, to be presented to teachers of the 6th grade of elementary school, through the retextualization of orality for the writing of the textual genre cordel for storytelling, through a practice of literacy.
