Oralidade enquanto prática de linguagem no contexto de um livro didático

Abstract

This study, based on a qualitative bibliographic research, aims to analyze how the skill of oral communication, as a language practice, is addressed in the textbook, describing the treatment given to oral genres by the work. Specifically, the goal is to present the oral genres covered in the analyzed textbook; verify whether the skill of oral communication is developed in the work in a contextualized manner through practices, genres, and different knowledge objects; and lastly, identify oral language practice experiences that contribute to the expansion of literacy and enable meaningful and critical participation in various social practices permeated/constituted by oral communication. The theoretical foundation of this work was built based on books, theses, and articles from the last twenty years to provide an overview of the conception and evolution of the activities proposed and the curriculum content outlined by the BNCC, PCNs, and the textbook. Based on this, after analyzing the collected data, a 7th-grade textbook used in public schools was examined, and the conclusion drawn is that the activities proposed to address the oral genres are not sufficient to prepare the student in all necessary aspects to express themselves with clarity and cohesion in different environments and social settings they will be part of.
