Variação linguística em sala de aula: um estudo crítico-reflexivo no 8º ano de uma Escola Municipal de Zé Doca - MA

Abstract

It is known that the language has variations motivated by its place of use. Brazil, which has continental geographic proportions, presents a linguistic diversity that deserves to be studied. It is in the school environment that the use of language presents the most diverse colors in speech. Therefore, the present work focuses on the study of linguistic variation in the classroom, contributing to the teaching of the Portuguese language in different situations of everyday communication. To achieve the proposed objective, studies by Cardoso & Mota (2006), Teyssier (1997), Mattos e Silva (1995), Bagno (1999, 2001, 2003 and 2007) and Bortoni-Ricardo (2004, 2005) will be used. among other authors carry out research related to the study of language. Thus, we opted for exploratory research, with emphasis on quantitative/qualitative with a bibliographic and descriptive approach. The group participating in this study are 8th grade students at a Municipal School in Zé Doca - MA. With a focus on the study of language variation, we direct our pedagogical actions to investigate each student's lexicon, which is a rich source to understand the formation of each individual's cultural identity. Thus, we seek to present and reflect the oral and written cultural norm for students, as well as provide reflections on linguistic prejudice in the school environment. The results point out that working with linguistic variation can be a very effective pedagogical strategy, as in the knowledge of the mother tongue and, mainly, in the fight against linguistic prejudice
