O texto literário na aula de PLE no Ensino Secundário em Macau

Abstract

This work aims to discuss the advantage of utilizing literary texts in classes of Portuguese as a Foreign Language of Secondary Education in Macao. We propose that with well-designed activities around the texts, literature is an excellent starting pointnot only for teaching and learning the language, but also to strengthen students’ abilityin critical and independent thinking. This work begins with a presentation of a theorical framework, followed by a description of the teaching practice, and ends with some didactic-pedagogical proposals that illustrate the relevance of the theorical question raised in the first chapter. The didactic proposals are presented with exercises realized in my Supervised Teaching Practice with Form 4 students who studied in Portuguese as non-mother tongue subject at Escola Portuguesa de Macau, during the second and third periods of the academic year 2019/2020.
