A crônica contemporânea: uma perspectiva de ensino da literatura no ensino fundamental

Abstract

In this article, we sought to analyze how the study of the contemporary chronicle genre can contribute to the teaching of Brazilian literature in the final years of elementary school, highlighting mainly the importance of reading at this stage of basic education, with a view to training a student -reader. To achieve this, the research was based on a bibliographical review with a qualitative approach, based on a vast theoretical framework in order to contribute to the discussions that permeate the teaching of literature in the classroom. Furthermore, the research presents the possibility of reflecting on the chronicle genre as a literary tool in the teaching-learning process given its composition and meaning. Finally, bringing the chronicle as a possibility for teaching literature in elementary school means presenting to students, through such an authentic genre, the importance of literary works and their contribution to the student's education, not only at school, but also social.
