Encontros e desencontros no ensino de Língua Inglesa no ensino fundamental II

Abstract

This paper aims to present the challenges faced by teachers and students during the process of teaching and learning the English Language in Elementary School II. Its objective is to analyze the pedagogical actions developed by the teachers, and the reception of the students in these procedures. We opted exclusively for a bibliographical study, due to the critical moment of the new Coronavirus pandemic. With this work, we hope to bring new perspectives to the pedagogical practices that are developed in the classroom by English Language teachers, with reflections based on the information we obtained during the readings. As a result, it was possible to realize that the English Language has a very important position in the educational and labor market, but the challenges are immense in the public network, where several resources are lacking. We observed, however, that nowadays the students are able to understand the importance that the use of the English Language has in their lives, enabling the acquisition and understanding of reading skills that will introduce them to a promising future. This work has also aroused new reflections about the teaching career, which is in an undervalued scenario. It is thought that, while the country does not understand that education is the most viable means for development, especially in the study of a Foreign Language, it will fail to break many barriers.
