Texto literário em sala de aula: o poema pede passagem

Abstract

This project has as main purpose the rescue of the poem genre in the classroom. It resulted from the need to give importance to this genre, often relegated to the background in our schools, where they give privilege to narrative prose. Because of this detachment of activities with poetry in class, we decided to prepare this work in order to improve our knowledge of the poem genre, as well as provide our students a literature teaching focused on literary literacy. In order to eliminate this detachment, we set out to develop a material based on didactic sequences involving the poem genre. It was elaborated four didactic sequences in order to be developed in the State School Archbishop Gaudencio Alberto Ramos in regular classes of ninth and eighth year. These didactic sequences received the following thematic denominations; i. Song of the Exile and its intertextuality; ii. Love poems; iii. Poems of social reflection; iv. Poems: images and senses. As theoretical support for this work, we follow the teachings of some scholars, like Cosson (2014), Gebara (2002), Candido (1995), Kleiman (2004), Koch (2012), among others. We think of writing our work by sub-dividing it into three stages. The first stage deals with the theoretical basis. It is also presented in this step a survey of the poem genre presence in textbooks as well as the view of the treatment that textbooks dispense to this literary genre. The second stage covers the aspects related to the poem as rhythm, meter, verse and their significance levels, the expressive units: direct language and figurative language, spontaneous figurative language and elaborate figurative language, word pictures and its modalities (image types) in addition to working with other levels or structural aspects of the poem as the lexical level, syntactic and semantic. In the third stage it is presented four didactic sequences that bring suggestions of activities to work with poetry in class.
