Linguistic variation and teaching

The present study has as its theme the importance of working with oral textual genres to expand the students’ communicative competence, with an approach that respects the linguistic variation. In order to verify the importance of the theme, it was established as the main objective to develop and analyze a training for teachers of the early years of elementary school that could instrumentalize them to work with oral textual genres from a perspective of respect for the students’ linguistic variation. From the training, a didactic sequence was built with the purpose of developing the students’ communicative competence and also to deepen their knowledge regarding linguistic variation, making them realize that language is something flexible and unique to each subject.
