A leitura e a escrita na educação infantil

The main objective of this study is to understand the prehistory of written language and its importance for the construction of linguistic signs. The specific objectives of this study are to understand the role of drawing and playing in the appropriation of written culture and to identify which activities should be planned in preschool to construct the idea of sign and its communicative function. It is understood that preschool is an important stage for the construction of the idea of symbolism and linguistic signs, and to understand the appropriation of writing in the preschool period, it is essential to identify its origins in the relationships that the child gradually establishes with the functions of the sign. In order to understand how learning and development of writing should occur in this school stage, the following specific objectives were defined: to understand how the child begins to understand a symbolic system and signs, how the child begins to perceive writing as a memory resource, and what the role of the school is. To this end, the theoretical-methodological dimension of this study is based on the principles of human development presented by Vygotsky's Historical-Cultural Theory (2010), which includes the importance of mediation and development of higher psychological functions and the prehistory of written language. It is also based on the studies of Luria (2010), who points out the paths that make up the prehistory of writing, outlining the origins of this form of language in its genesis, in the preschool period. The study pointed out paths for a pedagogical action that creates circumstances that allow the appropriation of writing in its social functionality, providing a qualitative change in the child's relationship with this type of language, since they present the need to write. The importance of games, make-believe and drawing were also pointed out as important activities for the construction of the linguistic sign, during the preschool stage. ; Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal ...
