A interdisciplinaridade no ensino fundamental: uma análise do livro didático de língua inglesa

Abstract

Interdisciplinary projects have been identified as desirable practices for the development of relevant knowledge for students as they bring content closer to their reality. From this perspective, this study analyzes the presence of the interdisciplinary approach in the foreign language textbook for the final years of elementary school. The work chosen for analysis was the textbook Beyond Words (2018) approved by the Plano Nacional do Livro Didático (PNDL), 2020. The work developed consisted of the analysis of the mentioned book with an emphasis on identifying the interdisciplinary approach between English content and other subjects present in elementary school. The research used as a theoretical framework the guiding documents of basic education in Brazil such as PCNs, LDBs and BNCC and their updates, as well as authors who in recent years have sought to value an integrated approach to the contents of different disciplines such as FAZENDA (1994, 2001), SANTOS (2013), MANTOVANI (2009) among others. The research took place in a qualitative and quantitative way, using the analysis of the number of occurrences of the interdisciplinary approach of the contents of the English language subject together with contents of the other subjects taught in the final years of elementary school. It was observed that the analyzed work promoted an interdisciplinary approach with the subjects of Geography, Arts, Physical Education and Portuguese Language
