Alfabetização de crianças caboverdianas em língua portuguesa como língua não materna : o ensino da leitura

abstract: Cape Verde is a country of bilingual characteristics, where coexist two languages: the mother tongue – the Creole of Cape Verde (CCV) or the Capeverdian Language (LCV) and the Non Maternal language – the Portuguese that is the official language and, therefore, the language used in the process of education and learning. This situation generates conflicts so much to linguistic level as to cultural level. The two languages presents some lexical resemblances, what drives, many times, to misconceptions and linguistics errors that complicate children in the learning, in particular, of reading that constitute the base for the learning of others knowledge. The learning of reading, in the Non Maternal language, requires a development of the oral language in Portuguese Language, which stimulates the reasoning of the child through playful exercises and cognitivists and construtivists approaches. In this way, the competences of phonological processing in the acquisition of the competences of reading are important for the discrimination of written text and favor the learning and the development of reading. The child, through the discovery, begins to elaborate concepts in the way to obtain a relation with the written language, by functional form. Adopting a methodology of case study and through questionnaires, direct observation and collect of documentary information, this dissertation presents and analyzes connected aspects to the literacy of capeverdian children in the beginning of the schooling and to the learning of reading as basic support for the learning of Non Maternal language. The subsidies collected by the study, presented in this dissertation will contribute for the education progress of reading and, also, for implement successfully the learning of reading of the students, developing to practical of reading and the expectations in uncover the multiplicity of the dimensions of experience in that domain and contribute for a relative comprehension of written and reading modes.

Referencial para o ensino em português língua segunda em Cabo Verde no contexto da oficialização da língua cabo-verdiana

A qualidade do ensino depende da língua em que é ministrado, conforme o domínio que dela têm os aprendentes. Historicamente, nas escolas de Cabo Verde, o Português tem sido a língua veicular e de alfabetização e é assumido como instrumento de comunicação escrita e meio de acesso a diferentes áreas de saber, já que usufrui do estatuto de língua recomendada para o ensino das diferentes disciplinas. No entanto, a UNESCO recomenda ou reconhece que o ensino deve ser iniciado e/ou realizado em língua materna, de acordo com a Declaração Universal dos Direitos Linguísticos. Todavia, a Língua Cabo-Verdiana (LCV), que tem o estatuto de Língua materna (LM), é ainda predominantemente oral, embora seja utilizada à escala nacional, a nível do quotidiano. A LCV ainda não é ensinada nas escolas, pelo que a instituição de um modelo de ensino que favoreça a situação actual de Cabo Verde exige uma complexa e reflectida decisão a tomar pelas autoridades educativas. O ensino será ministrado na Língua Cabo-Verdiana? Continuará a sê-lo em Português, como se fosse língua materna, ou como língua estrangeira, língua segunda? Ou será melhor um ensino bilingue? As respostas a estas e outras questões serão procuradas junto dos professores do Ensino Básico, alguns do Secundário que ensinam em Cabo Verde e altos responsáveis pelo sistema educativo caracterizarão o ensino, a língua de ensino no processo pedagógico, a hipótese de introdução da língua materna. É nossa perspectiva reunir ideias que justifiquem a proposta de um planeamento educativo, onde sobressaem aspectos relacionados com a escolha de língua (s) de ensino, visando introduzir melhoria na qualidade das aprendizagens, de modo a satisfazer as necessidades do país.
