PRACTICES OF LINGUISTIC ANALYSIS IN TEACHER CONTINUING EDUCATION OF 5th YEAR TEACHERS

This paper discusses, exemplifies and characterizes the insertion of practices of Linguistic Analysis (PLA) with an interactionist approach (Geraldi, 1991) within a continuing education context. Data was generated through qualitative research (Bortoni-Ricardo, 2008), of a collaborative type (Desgagn & eacute;, 2007) with 5 th year Fundamental Education teachers, from a small municipality in the Northwest region of Paran & aacute;. The results indicate that PLA experiences enabled the subjects to act with, through and on the language, to favor the understanding that carrying out linguistic analysis means to reflect on possibilities of construction of meanings and strategies of saying made possible by expressive resources, as highlighted in the studies of Jo & atilde;o Wanderley Geraldi.
