The literary text as a support for learning the witten language.
Writing and Literature. Reading and writing
The Portuguese language teaching has been constituted as the most urgent difficulty to be overcome, within the educational educational action; And this observation is made evident by the large number of elementary students who have serious problems of reading and, consequently, of writing. The facts presented appear as a symptom of a form of teaching that is more committed to standardized content in the institutionalized curriculum than to the construction of a bridge between the content of the work and the life experiences; Without which effective learning will not occur. In the face of these difficulties, we set out to propose the literary reading of poems and short stories to favor the articulation of linguistic and literary knowledge and, thus, to bring apprentices closer to the richness emanating from those texts; Generating opportunities to minimize the limitations of good writing. Our investigation is an action research, in which we seek, from a pedagogical intervention, to develop writing activities in the perspective of the standard norm of the language linked to the reading of literary works. In order to achieve the research purpose, we support authors of the areas of Portuguese Language and Literature, namely: Cosson (2006), Flôres (2001), Kato (1995), Kleiman (1995), Matêncio (1998), Antunes 2011), Figueiredo (2005) Koch and Elias (2010), Azevedo (2012), Passarelli (2004), Schneuwly and Dolz (2004), among others. The results revealed that the didactic actions undertaken to develop students' writing skills from the reading of texts of the literary genre were shown to be relevant in favor of learning to write in the standard language modality.
