Abstract

An experience of intervention in literacy classes in Early Childhood and Primary Education is presented in this chapter from a perspective that conceives language as a process of co-construction of meanings and associates orality, reading and writing in that process. This perspective discusses the implicit definitions of the most widespread teaching proposals and argues that there is a conceptualization of written language as an object of learning in the initial period. This conceptualization is evident in the activities and interactions entailed by that process, as well as a description of the learner at the starting point.
