Booklet: cultural object, vehicle of institutionalization of practices remembered by literacy teachers

At the end of the 20th century, as a result of studies of psychogenesis, literacy studies, and institutionalization of National Curriculum Parameters, a new curriculum for teaching of reading and writing has been instituted. Studies and research at different educational levels have vehemently opposed the use of old literacy methods and disseminated a discourse against the adoption of booklets and, consequently, the ba-be-bi-bo-bu.In this study, I’ve verified that those manuals, throughout the history of education, had been used as guides for literacy practices and presented a linguistic structuring of teaching and learning through letters, syllables and words that still remain in practical action of teachers who emphasize the use of those primers as support for teaching of reading and writing in current school context.

Abstract: 

At the end of the 20th century, as a result of studies of psychogenesis, literacy studies, and institutionalization of National Curriculum Parameters, a new curriculum for teaching of reading and writing has been instituted. Studies and research at different educational levels have vehemently opposed the use of old literacy methods and disseminated a discourse against the adoption of booklets and, consequently, the ba-be-bi-bo-bu.In this study, I’ve verified that those manuals, throughout the history of education, had been used as guides for literacy practices and presented a linguistic structuring of teaching and learning through letters, syllables and words that still remain in practical action of teachers who emphasize the use of those primers as support for teaching of reading and writing in current school context.
