Uma prática de leitura e escrita: o gênero notícia na sala de aula do ensino médio

Abstract

In this work, we have as main objective to report an experience of working with newspaper in the classroom, proposing the contact with the Jornal da Paraíba, through activities aimed at the practice of reading and writing printed news. The present research seeks to analyze 8 textual productions, evidencing the mastery of the genre through reading and writing activities. The purpose of the paper work was to: a) analyze the characteristics of printed newspapers; b) explore notebooks and sections of the newspaper, identifying news items; c) recognize the social function of each news item studied; d) to know the compositional structure of the news genre and e) to produce news in the classroom, thus developing the reading and writing skills. For this, we developed activities in the 1st year of high school in E.E.E.F.M. Professor Luiz Gonzaga de Albuquerque Burity, resulting from the participation of the Institutional Program of the Initiation to Teaching Grant (PIBID) of the licentiate course in Portuguese Letters of the Federal University of Paraíba. The interest in this work was due to the lack of interest in reading the Jornal da Paraíba and the lack of encouragement to read and write texts in Portuguese language classes. We used as theoretical basis the following authors: Bakhtin (1997), Lage (2001, 2011), Alves Filho (2011), Franceschini (2004), Caregnatto and Costa-Hübes (2009), Lara (2011), Benassi Medina (2001), PCNEM (2000), RCNEM-PB (2007), PCN (1998), OCEM's (2006), Lopes-Rossi (2002) and Marcushi (2002). Based on the method of the didactic sequence of Dolz, Noverraz and Schneuwly (2004), we start from a production, news reads, in the Jornal da Paraíba, and we request another textual production. We consider this work of great relevance, since it provides students with reading competence, autonomy in writing and the knowledge of a familiar gender in the social environment.
