Projetos de leitura e sua aplicação nas séries iniciais do ensino fundamental

Abstract

This paper intends to demonstrate the importance of inserting reading in the classroom in the initial years of elementary school, as well as presenting ideas on how the teacher can encourage reading, forming potential readers and subjects with critical thinking. The concepts of literacy, schooling and initial reading instruction will be presented and, finally, three literary projects carried out in public schools that have succeeded in their objective of improving the quality of teaching as a whole and bringing children closer to the world of reading. We conclude that working on reading in the classroom at an early age is fundamental to forming potential readers and consequently aware and active citizens in society.
