By writing stories, I (re)construct my own history

The aim of this project was to develop interpretation and written production from a dynamic and interactive perspective in a public school. In addition, it sought to restore values, since the target audience had behavioural and social problems. The current generation of young students is demanding, while teaching resources have been reinvented, enabling the classroom to be transformed into a dynamic and interactive space. It is necessary to seek strategies to provide a comprehensive education that reaches their understanding and arouses their interest. At the beginning of the 2015 school year in a small school located in the Baixada Fluminense region, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, expectations for developing quality work were minimal, due to the limited knowledge of this sixth-grade group, which showed a total lack of interest in learning. This situation made clear the need to carry out a unique project, seeking to combine the practice of reading and writing with the construction of values. For these reasons, this teacher-researcher decided to invest in a project based on fables, in dialogue with new information and communication technologies.
