As contribuições da literatura infanto – juvenil no ensino de Língua Portuguesa no Ensino Fundamental II de uma escola pública de Parintins-Am

Abstract

This study aims to discuss the contributions of children's and young adult literature to the teaching of Portuguese in middle school (grades 6-9). Its objective is to investigate the contributions of children's and young adult literature to the teaching of Portuguese in an 8th-grade class at a public school. The research was structured around supervised observation internships at a specific public school in Parintins, where an interest arose in investigating how children's and young adult literature contributes to the development of reading practices and assists in fostering an interest in reading throughout school life and in the formation of readers. The methodology used involves bibliographic research, field research, and a qualitative method. The theoretical basis includes ideas from: Cosson (2012); Candido (1995 and 2004); Gomes and Manede (2020); Lajolo (2007); and Peres (2024).
