Os clássicos adaptados como subsídio para o letramento literário no ensino fundamental

Abstract

The literary reading becomes increasingly scarce in school, and the work with the classic texts face resistance from students, and even among some teachers, who take a sacralized attitude before the canonical work, spreading the false idea that literature is something reserved only for the brightest minds. This paper discusses the use of literary adaptations in elementary school as a way to stimulate literary literacy practices that arouse interest in the fiction texts. We recognize that reading a rewriting never replace the reading of the work in its integrality, however, we also believe that it is a school’s duty, as the main literacy agency and privileged space for literary approach, make known to his students as many possible narratives, from the early grades. At the end of the discussion, we present a pedagogical proposal with a classic condensed version, seeking attest the relevance of the work with the rewriting for the development of new approaches to literature in the classroom, making possible to discuss it in the different levels of education. The work is intended, therefore, to all who are interested in the issue of literary readers formation in school and in the use of rewriting as reading incentive materials.
