A literatura infantil como recurso didático para o desenvolvimento da leitura nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental em uma escola pública de João Pessoa

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze children's literature as a resource for the development of reading in a public school in João Pessoa and to verify if the children's literature is actually being worked, as well as what methods and strategies are used by teachers of the years elementary education in the classroom. Literature is a resource of great importance in the formation of reading subjects, as it awakens the child's imagination and thought in a meaningful and pleasant way. However, in order for this formation to take place, reading must be done with pleasure, not duty. Therefore, to discuss this theme, theorists were approached, such as: Freire (2011); Martins (2004); Zilberman (2014); Koch and Elias (2008); among others, which were revisited in the course of the work, dealing with the theme involving reading and children's literature, which are the most important points in this work. In the methodology of the research, the qualitative approach was used, with observations and questionnaires being applied with 05 (five) teachers of the initial years of elementary education, being objective and subjective questions, in order to collect data, besides analyzing and discussing about the use of children's literature, highlighting their importance in the classroom, to encourage reading.
