O tratamento da oralidade em sala de aula

Abstract

The increasing presence of the oral language in day to day professional and academic life arouse an interest in the teaching of oral text production, which is the target of our study. In this context, our interest was directed towards the positions explained in the National Curriculum Parameters that values the oral language and the requirement in the introduction to teaching the oral language in schools. Also the lack of researches in the area, motivated us to look in the classics, the knowledge about the oral language in which the rhetorical were the precursors. We presented a brief history about the usage of the oral language through time and we tracked the contributions that were the most interesting. Based on those studies, we established the parameters that should guide the teaching of the oral language in our schools. To get to know the teaching of the oral language, we analyzed oral language activities in 9 volumes of books didactic to the Portuguese language for high schools. From the data collected by the analysis of activities, we planed a proposal to increase the oral language based on didactic sequence in which they were supported in the parameters that we established. This research will contribute to improve the teaching of the oral language in Portuguese classes, since we believe that the schools should prepare good citizens and prepare their students for life.
