O trabalho de apropriação do sistema de escrita alfabética no livro didático do 1º ano adotado no município de São João

Abstract

This work was based on the theory of psychogenesis by Ferreiro and Teberosky (1979), and is composed of a documental analysis on the work of appropriation of the writing system in first-year elementary schoolbooks adopted in the municipality of São João-Pernambuco. We aim to analyze whether the schoolbook used in the literacy cycle in the municipality of São João carries out the appropriation of the alphabetical writing system, by conducting a qualita-tive and quantitative approach, as we were concerned with carefully analyzing each activity of such schoolbook, categorizing them in the most adequate manner, through charts with the types of activities found, in order to be able to identify what the literacy proposal of the book is. Thus we came to the conclusion that the book is comprised of diversified activities, while not contemplating, in a balanced manner, activities which foster students’ reflection so that he or she may be able to advance his or her literacy level to a more significant extent.
