Teaching reading and its relation with elementary school teachers’ education: notes from the academic production

This paper presents some reflections built from a bibliographic review of the academic production related to teaching reading from 2013 and 2016, related to the actions of implementation of the Right Age Literacy National Pact (PNAIC, Brazilian abbreviation). The methodological procedures were guided by the definition of categories which emerged during the investigations to explain the objects of study identified regarding teaching reading. The analysis revealed that the studies related to the PNAIC have increased significantly in post-graduation programs, demonstrating the researchers’ concern with the study and understanding of how the pact has been made concrete in literacy practices. It is noticeable, however, that there is a gap between theory and practice and the valuation of tacit knowledge in the government proposal for elementary school teachers’ education
