El problema de la enseñanza de la lectura en educación primaria

Abstract

This exploratory and descriptive research study has the objective to determine which reading teaching strategies teachers use in primary school. The Curriculum para la Educacion Basica (2007) states that reading strategies are necessary for the expression of critical, reflective and free thinking. They are also necessary for the appreciation of socio-cultural diversity. Though theoreticians and researchers have contributed to turn reading into a critical, constructive and significant experience, problems in the process of teaching reading still remain. Results indicate that teachers continuously teach reading aiming at strengthening social awareness needed for an effective social change.
