Fifty words to learn the written code of the Spanish language. Adaptation of Paulo Freire’smethod to childhood
Abstract
An adaptation of the method based on generating words by Paulo Freire, the well-known, 20th Century, Brazilian pedagogue and educator, is proposed in order to ease the teaching-learning of written Spanish in the beginning stages of early childhood. Not only does this proposal adhere to his thought and philosophy, it also takes into consideration the different ways of processing written language framed within the Psycholinguistic School proposals, without neglecting the Constructivism´s contributions. The choice of words has been elaborated through qualitative research from the observation of schoolchildren´ vocabulary from 4 to 7 year-old in the capital city of Salamanca.Downloads
