Abstract

This work has the objective to discuss the grammar teaching in school, specifically addressing how the teaching and learning of transitivity have been taken to the Portuguese language classes in primary education in public schools. The importance of the subject is given by the fact that the same finding divergence from the field of study in which it is inserted. In some textbooks of the Portuguese language, it is treated as regency, in others as transitivity as well as verbal predication. These differences have led us to research the subject from the perspective of functional linguistics to see if this approach had contribution in ways that could settle certain points discussed and still unclear on the concepts and classifications proposed by traditional grammar. The work is of bibliographical, but with the presentation of a proposal for activities sequence in a functionalist approach and took place from comparisons made between traditional grammars school of today grammars, textbooks adopted today in schools, as well as what they say the official documents of the grammar school. In addition, we address the issue in the linguistic functionalism vision and aim the contributions of functionalist theories for teaching verbal transitivity.
