Ensino da oralidade na educação básica: o desafio ainda continua?

Abstract

This work deals with the teaching of the oral form of the language in Elementary School II and its general objective was to analyze what is the space for teaching oral genres in Portuguese language classes and, as specific objectives: i) analyze how the proposals MEC curricula and documents guide oral work; ii) analyze the extent to which continuing education contributes to the work with oral genres in Portuguese language classes in the final years of Elementary School; iii) analyze how Portuguese language textbooks for the final years adopted in a municipal education network deal with the teaching of oral genres. To this end, the theoretical contribution presented concepts related to orality and literacy based on Geraldi (2000) and Kleiman (2005). This research is a bibliographic study (André, 2006) and the methodological procedures for generating data were document analyses, continuing education guidelines and work proposals in textbooks. The results showed that work with the oral modality of the language in Portuguese language classes is still incipient, as we observed little discussion in ongoing training and in the work proposed in textbooks. However, in the documents and curricular proposals, progress was noticed in relating oral genres with the spheres of human activity and in proposing teaching objectives.
