A pré-história da linguagem escrita na idade pré-escolar na sociedade letrada: contribuições da teoria histórico-cultural.

Abstract

We try, in our work, to analyze if the experience in the scholar society anticipates the process of appropriation of the written language, in its pre-history, in preschool age children. We understand that the scholar society, when promoting the interaction of the child with the writing, in the diverse social situations involving the text carriers, it could anticipate the process of appropriation of the writing during its pre-history, as wrote A.R. Luria. In the elaboration of the written activity, we consider some of the experimental characteristics of the author. We still did a half-structuralized interview with their parents to inquire the mediation cultural context with the writing and the contact with the text carriers, where the children live deeply, in the social situation that they were involved. The results show us that the presence of the text carriers does not guarantee the anticipation of the pertaining periods of training to the pre-history of the writing . However, these carriers, inserted in intentional situations of functional use of the writing, mediated socially, they had taken the child, in the preschool age, to the meaning that accomplishes of the writing in their scholar pre-history context.
