O artigo caracteriza os discursos especializados sobre o momento mais adequado para o início da alfabetização das crianças, no contexto da ampliação do ensino fundamental para nove anos, a partir da promulgação da Lei no 11.274 em 6 de fevereiro de 2006. A análise inspira-se na perspectiva teórico-metodológica de análise do discurso de Michel Foucault e incide sobre artigos acadêmicos, documentos oficiais e textos publicados em revistas de divulgação destinadas a professores no período compreendido entre a década de 1990 e a de 2010. A partir do exame das fontes foi possível caracterizar os discursos considerados como sendo pertencentes a uma mesma formação discursiva. Seus enunciados nucleares dizem respeito à necessidade de se respeitar as características das crianças na transição da educação infantil ao ensino fundamental, ao mesmo tempo em que se busca favorecer o seu aprendizado da leitura e da escrita, preferencialmente de maneira lúdica e a partir do seu interesse espontâneo.Palavras-chave: Alfabetização.

An analysis of specialized discourses in the context of the expansion of elementary educationABSTRACTThe article characterizes the specialized discourses about the most appropriate moment for the beginning of children's literacy, in the context of the expansion of basic education to nine years, after the enactment of Law 11,274 on February 6, 2006. The analysis is inspired by the theoretical-methodological perspective of Michel Foucault's discourse analysis, and focuses on academic articles, official documents and texts published in magazines aimed at teachers in the period between the 1990s and the 2010s. Based on the examination of the sources, it was possible to characterize the discourses considered as belonging to the same discursive formation. Its core statements refer to the need to respect the characteristics of children in the transition from early childhood education to elementary education, while seeking to promote their learning of reading and writing, preferably in a playful way and based on their spontaneous interest.Keywords: Literacy.

Abstract The study investigated the predictive role of executive functions, language, initial reading and writing abilities, teacher’s perception of the students’ difficulties and family characteristics, evaluated in Early Childhood Education (ECE) (Jardim I and Jardim II), in relation to reading and writing performance in the first year of Elementary Education. A total of 71 children were monitored in a longitudinal manner from ECE up to the first year, and evaluated in Oral Language (OL), Executive Functions (EF), initial Reading and Writing skills in ECE and, in the first year, evaluated by means of Reading and Writing tests. Parents provided information on socioeconomic status (SES) and teachers indicated children with difficulties. After the data imputation process, regression tree analysis showed that OL skills and initials skills of reading and writing in ECE explained a mean of 43% of the reading variability in the first year. For writing, the models also included performances in EF, income, father’s age and indication of difficulty by the teacher in ECE, explaining a mean of 78% of the variability in writing in the first year. The results allowed identifying abilities and variables that can be considered precursors of subsequent performances in Elementary Education, providing guidance for actions of early identification and intervention.

The relative effectiveness of different pedagogical approaches and pedagogies in early childhood has raised substantial debate. While the other are associated with the acquisition of basic skills and knowledge and some of them are associated with socio-emotional development and problem-solving abilities. In general, research revealed both positive and negative effects of pedagogical approaches, without favouring specific pedagogical approaches over mainstream ones. However, it is important to note that research evidence and studies considering the same approaches in the same context are very limited. On the other hand, specific pedagogical practices are found to enhance child development, including high-quality interactions involving sustained-shared thinking methods, play-based learning, scaffolding, as well as a combination of staff- and child initiated activities. Research impacts pedagogy and pedagogical practices in the sense that research findings can inform policy makers and practitioners on best practices and what works best in enhancing staff performance, process quality and child development. Research on pedagogy and practices is usually not conducted at the national level, but focuses on particular programmes. So, research review has been used as a guide or manual to provide pedagogical guidance for Early Childhood Education (ECE) staff not only in India but also worldwide. The main focus of the study is that how of the best pedagogical practices and approaches across the country can be useful and implemented in early childhood education

The discussion now presented is an excerpt from a collective investigation, in progress, which aims to understand the ways of constituting professionalism and teaching identity from narratives written by teachers of Basic Education and Higher Education. Thus, within the limits of this article, the reflections triggered by the story of an active teacher in Early Childhood Education are brought up. Reading the writings, based on dialogism and otherness, led us to affirm the formative and reflective potential of the narratives not only for those who narrate, but also for those who read them; as well as the extent to which the teaching construction/constitution paths -even being singular -are influenced by plural and collective elements of the socio-cultural context (concrete and subjective) that the subjects are inserted in.

In recent years sociocultural theory has provided an important conceptual tool for re-thinking many practices in early childhood education (e.g. Anning, Cullen & Fleer, 2004; Edwards, 2001; Edwards, 2003). While much has been gained, many taken-for-granted practices still remain in need of critique. Although the term ‘Child Development’ has been debated in the past (see collection of papers in Fleer, 1995; Keesing-Styles & Hedges, in press; Lubeck, 1996; 1998), we have not seen the emergence of a new approach or world view to replace it Ten years have passed, and we still find national materials which foreground Western middle-class notions of development (e.g. Responses to the National Agenda for Early Childhood, Australian Government, 2003). This paper seeks to stimulate debate within Australia and New Zealand around the term ‘Child Development’. Responses are invited so that the historical and cultural legacy of that term can be examined and a new term introduced which recognises our culturally and linguistically diverse communities. It is through public debate that we can as a scholarly community build new terminology to name and make visible new thinking.
