Abstract

The present work has as its theme Poetry in the classroom: the place of poetic language in the initial years in schools from João Pessoa- in the state of Paraíba. The proposal of this research is to bring the world of poetry into the classroom, through the outlook of reading projects and also dynamic and creative activities with the poem genre. The general objective is to investigate how the work with the poetic language is developed in the school, in classes from 1st to 5th year of elementary school, about the importance of reading. In this work, we had approached Cosson (2012); Freire (1991); Pilati (2017); Koch, and Elias (2006); and Martins (1984). Regarding to the document of the federal government, the research is based on the study of the National Curriculum Parameters of Portuguese Language (which in this work was cited as PCN). We used Kleiman‟s (2005) concept of literacy, which comes to be a set of practices of reading and writing that result from a conception of what, how, when and why to read, as well as literary literacy, which can be described as a process that is done through literary texts. In order to collect the data about the study's target audience and describe the involved aspects, we applied a questionnaire with the teachers, as well as we had accompanied some of the reading classes, in the sense of observe the reading strategies used by the teachers. We also tried to capture and describe the students' reactions to their work in the literary text in the classroom. Reading is an important activity along school education because it is a necessary instrument for the achievement of new learning and new concepts.
