THE ART OF CREATING NEW POSSIBLES: NUANCES FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING

Abstract

The growing cultural and economic importance of a European base has been recognized by different countries around the world, especially in Brazil, in view of its foreign policy. So much so, that the National Congress approved and the Presidency of the Republic sanctioned Law No. 11161, of August 5, 2005, providing for language teaching. That legal instrument determines that English language teaching is mandatory for schools and secondary school students, and also allows for the inclusion of that language in full primary education courses from 5th to 8th grades. It is also stipulated in the Law that "public education systems will implement Foreign Language Teaching Centers, whose programming will include the provision of the English language". It is to be imagined, for all of this, that the legal decision will provoke a demand for specialist English language teachers, opening up interesting perspectives for those who are really well prepared. The present work addresses the problem of students' lack of interest and simultaneously presents the proposal of pleasure in learning the English language, carrying out in the applied structures the practice of oral and written language and also achieving through audiovisual one of the proposed objectives, which is communication, through images linked to vocabulary, facilitating broad knowledge and power also through this fixation and practice of knowledge with entertainment. Due to this fact, experiments are suggested to be carried out in classrooms, with the aim that they can help anyone who becomes aware of this subject or becomes interested: the experience of pleasure in learning the English language.
