READ, CHILD! LITERARY READING AND DIVERSITY

Abstract

The project Leia, criança! promoted actions and reflections that valued diversity and respect for differences through literature. Historically, the school has difficulties in dealing with diversity and in this gap social projects that prioritize literary reading can promote discussion about differences. The project discussed themes historically invisible in the school context while fighting for the promotion of full citizenship through educational practices. Their approaches positioned the school in the direct fight against gender, ethnic-racial, economic-social discrimination, recognizing that such practices represent dilemmas that need to be denaturalized and overcome in social relations, because they foster hatred, intolerance of differences and, above all, make people unequal in the school environment. The target audience was students from the 6th grade of Elementary School in the public network of the city of Guarapuava-PR.
