A importância do ensino de gêneros discursivos por meio da leitura

Abstract

Starting from the importance that reading has in the process of learning a language, whether mother tongue or foreign, and understanding that the reading conceptions determine how readers extract meaning from the text, we understand that it is through the discursive genres that we can use the various forms of communication. Therefore, the objective of this work is to discuss the importance of teaching discoursive genres through reading, in an interactionist perspective, contributing to the improvement of students' reading proficiency. For that, bibliographic research was used, based on the authors Koch e Elias (2010) for the reading conceptions; Bahktin (2003), Marcuschi (2008), Koch e Elias (2010) and Cavalcante (2013) for the discursive genres. After reading and analyzing the entire theoretical contribution of the research, the results confirmed our initial idea that the teaching of the English language should be based on the interactionist perspective through the discursive genres.
