And the role of schools in this phase is more scientific, that is, to show children that there are different textual forms, coexisting with the narrative books, such as manuals, informational text, recipes, fun. "The school will not only work-oriented reading pleasure. It will show that both reading and writing have different social functions, "says Raquel.
Adolescence
But with the growth and maturing child, all that work and school that parents had during childhood to captivate the reader can be lost if the adolescent does not receive attention. The problem lies in the fact that in this age group arise several distractions for the child like sports, computers, cell phones, groups of friends who do not have the same habit and romance, for example. "Adolescents are more autonomous, independent and make choices that are beyond the control of parents," says Professor UFPR Marta Morais da Costa.
To capture this couple is not easy. If he, as a child, had the habit of reading, the task becomes a little simpler, yet it is very difficult to compete with current technologies. "To win the player is worth everything. No matter the media, whether electronic or on paper. We must attract the teen for what he likes, "says Marta. She said the first step is to choose subjects of his daily life, such as sports or games, for example. The second is to use the media with which he most closely identifies, and may be up to the phone. From this, you can choose the text that will attract you. "Only after you have 'hooked' is that gradually we will move to deeper readings, because, after all, we can not give him only what we think he might want."
Best sellers can attract the reader
Much criticized by scholars of literature, books like the series of Harry Potter or Twilight (the new sensation among young people and even among adults) are a great gateway to reading for young people. "I did some research with my students of Literature. Those who began reading the series Firefly came later to other works deeper. All were in the course of Humanities, which means that today leem Machado de Assis, Leeland and Guimaraes Rosa. I believe in the process of training the player that has to do with reading enjoyable and gradually lead the reader to want to own something more consistent, "said the teacher Katya, whose doctoral thesis addresses the Firefly series, popular with teenagers of the 1980s and 1990s.
With respect to encouraging reading in children the role of parents is more important in adolescence has teacher role to develop this habit. Especially when it is required, for example, go to university. "We saw a storyteller there in front," says Professor of Literature Course Positive Ogleari Braz. "I do a summary of the history of the plot. It's like a movie trailer, that people watch and then want to see the movie. I do the same with literary works. I present the most important parts for them with suspense and drama. Also enhancing the sensuality of the characters. They are curious and end up reading the works at will. "
The union that transforms
It is easy to set an example for the children if parents do not usually read. In this case, the first step is to buy newspapers, magazines, comics or books and put their hands dirty. What matters is to read something that interests you, to help in the workplace or simply gives you pleasure. "There are people who are ashamed of saying that reads novels like Sabrina and Julia. I always say it's much better to read these works than watching the Sunday TV programs, "she says of course Letras PUCPR Cátia Toledo Mendonca. "What counts is to begin. It is slowly, but that his son realize that it's a habit. "
A good way to try to create the habit is to participate in reading groups in which participants encourage each other. Beginners can read a book a month. Since the earliest can read a book every fortnight or even every week. Is the case of reading group created by Professor Marta Morais da Costa. "We set up this group for 10 years in PUCPR. Then I hung up the university and I left the group, but the meetings continue, "says the teacher. The difference is that they now occur in members' homes and every 15 days instead of weekly. "We read the book before we met and discussed the style, the author, the plot and characters," says the chef de cuisine Regina Leitão. "I always liked to read and the group read the works of Latin American literature that I could not imagine being so good."
Division of responsibilities
Schools also can adopt ways that go beyond the curriculum to encourage reading, without it being mandatory or something worth note. An example is the Living Word Program, the Schools Plus, in Curitiba. All students from first grade of elementary school to the second high school may participate by entering text in any genre and authorship. "For the students to feel motivated to write, the teacher brings other texts than those already recommended in the classroom. They are poems, essays, short stories and news. To write, they end up devoting a lot of reading, "says the coordinator of Portuguese Elementary Schools Positive, Ana Maria Miranda. The winning texts are published in a book published every year.
