Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a few thoughts on one of the implications of the entrance of the theories of genres, specifically the one about genres of speech (BAKHTIN, 1988; 2003; 2004), as referential to the teaching of language practices in schools. We are interested in discussing the space given by the language teaching to the subject's manifestation and subjectivity's magnification upon the theoretical orientation. From the subject's perspective in Bakhtin (2003, 2004), we have analyzed the oral report of an elementary school student while interacting with his mother about the written activities that had been given to him by the school - a corpus generated in a family environment in 2014, registered (audio) by the mother herself (a Linguistics researcher) before being transferred for analysis. Based on an interpretative qualitative analysis some limits and possibilities for the subject in Portuguese teaching through genres are pointed out.
