Although oral skills are prominent in the teaching materials of Portuguese as an Additional Language (PAL), they are commonly seen only as a colloquial language, proper of conversations and familiar and informal situations. There is still a lack of Brazilian publications on didactic materials in PAL that focus on oral language from the perspective of discourse genres and that seek to enable students to understand and perform authentic oral texts in different contexts of language use. Thus, we developed a didactic unit on the genre of instruction aiming to propose a material for teaching orality to intermediate students from the point of view of the didactic sequence developed by Schneuwly & Dolz (2004). We intend to present to PLA teachers and researchers a suggestion of a didactic unit that focuses on the production of oral genres by considering its varied aspects in situations of communication.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
