TEXT II
Reading approaches language practices which come
directly from the interaction of the reader with the written
text, especially under the focus of the constitution of
meaning, based on understanding and interpreting genres
written in the English language, which circulate in the
various fields and layers of society. The practice of reading
in English promotes, for example, the development of
strategies of textual recognition (the use of verbal and
non-verbal clues into the formulation of hypotheses and
inferences) and of the investigation of the ways in which
the contexts in the BNCC facilitate processes of meaning
and critical reflection of the themes under study.
The work with verbal and hybrid genres, mainly
potentialized by digital media, makes it possible to live, in
a meaningful and pre-given way, diverse ways of reading
(reading in order to have a general idea of the text, search
for specific information, understand details, etc.), as well
as different aims at reading (in order to do research, or
enhance one’s own writing, read aloud to defend ideas or
arguments, to act in the actual world, always in a critical
manner, among other aims). Besides, reading practices
in English include diverse possibilities of contexts in
the use of languages for research and enhancing of
knowledge of meaningful themes for the students, in
interdisciplinary works or esthetic appreciation of genres
like poems, plays, etc.
Reading from chosen texts, involving practice with
diverse written and multimodal texts, of great importance
to the life of students in their school, social and cultural
aspects, as well as the analyzing and problematizing of
the chosen texts, help develop critical reading and the
building of an autonomous and creative trajectory in
language learning.
