A Cartola Mágica das Palavras: o encantamento na formação do leitor

Abstract

The absence of specific and continuous training of the professional involved in education, especially in the teaching of reading, is a constant subject in society, so such a subject is justified in the present investigation. Thus, how to promote, especially in relation to teachers, the interest in the reader´s education? In order to answer this question, a study was conducted which has resulted in the development of two educational products - a course and a manual of activities - primarily focusing on the teaching of literature in a playful and seductive way. The aim was to stimulate the reader´s education with the designing of an Activity Manual; offer a course applying the activities of the Manual; carry out an exhibition of the work developed in the course, as well as present the results obtained in scientific events. This is a descriptive, bibliographical and interventional research, and therefore, a review of the theoretical conceptions of Bajard (2007), Campos (1999), Esteves (2010), Hutcheon (1991), Massi (2011), Coelho (1987), Zilberman (1982), Rezende (1993), Gebara (2011), Pinheiro (2000), Altenfelder (2004), Gatti (2010), Lima (2015), Pinto (2014), among other supports for the development of the research. Thereby it was created the manual The Magic Topper of Words: Activity Guide, along with the homonym course, focused on the students of Escola Normal (Teaching Education), high school level in Cornélio Procópio-PR and, from the good results, it was possible to accomplish the objectives proposed. The good results can be exemplified by the excellent work presented, by the student’s involvement, enthusiasm and attendance during the classes and by interest of other professionals related to education when presenting the research in a scientific event. Therefor, the present dissertation fulfilled the objectives proposed contributing satisfactorily to the process of teaching learning reading and literature of children and young people.
