摘要:The genres o f poetic o rality has been markedly inserted in textbooks cycle 1 of the Elementary School. His presence is mainly in literacy activit ies. However, such use occurs mainly as a pretext for read ing exercises with the alp habet ic code, witho ut considering the playful and p erformat ive wealth implied in such genres . This art icle presents a reflection on the relevance of the work with texts of poet ic orality in the earl y years of elementary scho ol, respecting its original support - voice - and its performative dimensio n . To t his end, we discuss a teaching material where the oral text is treated only as a pret ext fo r decoding and literal read ing activit ies .
