Abstract

This article aims at discussing aspects involved in the reading of utterances/texts whose expression plane is verbal-visuality, present in two collections of Portuguese Language textbooks of Elementary Education. It seeks to understand how the treatment given to these utterances, in the textbooks analyzed, can contribute to the active and creative understanding of the text and to the development of a critical reader. The analysis was based on the Bakhtin Circle’s Dialogic Theory of Language and on Brazilian studies about the verbal-visual dimension of utterances. The result revealed that the activities regarding the utterances in question little contribute to the recognition of its verbal-visual dimension as indissoluble, which hinders the development of special skills for the reading of verbal-visual utterances.
