Sacola literária: prática de incentivo à leitura literária na educação infantil

Abstract

The present work was carried out from the “Literary bag” project in a kindergarten class, aiming to verify how and if the project contributes to the construction of the reading habit in early childhood education. More specifically, this work seeks to encourage the reading habit within the family and to verify what are the criteria chosen by the children throughout the process of choosing books for reading at home. Therefore, this paper attempts to reflect on the role of the family and the teachers as mediators along the process. For the discussion, theoretical concepts of authors such as Soares (2003), Zilbermam (1985), Cosson (2016), Bourdieu (2001) and Reyes (2010) were used. The relevance of this research is based on the importance of proposing a reflection on the practice of encouraging literary habit in early childhood education classes and raise awareness within the family environment about the importance of encouraging literature. Methodologically, the research is characterized as qualitative, being a research-action process, since the project was applied by the author herself. The results showed that the project “Literary bag” contributed to the formation of the children as readers, highlighting the importance of the partnership between family and school.
