A contribuição dos contos de fada para a aquisição da leitura e escrita nos primeiros anos do ensino fundamental

Abstract

The present research is a course conclusion work, presented to the Degree in Pedagogy, being carried out under the guidance of Professor Dr. Maria Yolanda Monteiro. The main objective of the work is to discuss about the contributions of fairy tales to the acquisition of the reading and writing process, and also the development of children's orality. Thus, the specific objectives of the research are: to discuss what children's literature is; present the importance of fairy tales for reading and writing practices and for the development of orality; understand the contributions of fairy tales to the formation of a good reader and writer; and to identify skills and contents present in the National Curricular Common Base (BNCC) with regard to children's literature. It consists of a bibliographical and exploratory research that was developed through qualitative analysis of selected articles through the Sucupira platform of the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), having as classification criteria magazines that are at level B2, of the quadrennium 2013 to 2016, articles referring to fairy tales were analyzed, seeking to understand how this theme is presented in articles and dissertations and the connection between literacy and literacy practices and fairy tales in the early years of elementary school . As theoretical references, the concepts presented by Professor Magda Soares were used, which are conceptions that discuss the unity of literacy and literacy processes and, also, the ideas of Bakhtin who understands that discourse only makes sense in the communication of the subject, that is conceived in a social context. Thus, it is considered that, from elementary school, the focus of pedagogical work should be the literacy and literacy process that can be given from the use of literature. In this context, the BNCC (BRASIL, 2017) guides the educator to use classic and contemporary children's literature to develop from reading and writing a critical reading of the world and its reality. Based on this assumption, it focused on emphasizing the relevance of fairy tales’ literature in the processes of reading and writing acquisition in the first years of elementary school, pointing out the need to use children's literature in teaching practice, contributing to the enrichment of the educational process.
