Pedagogical Proposal and game for learning to write the final R in verbal forms in Brazilian Portuguese

Abstract

The purpose of this article was created from the observation of the frequent occurrence of the deletion of the final R in the ending of the verb forms of the first and third person of the future of the subjunctive and of the personal infinitive in the writing of the students of the final series of elementary school. In view of this, a didactic proposal was first elaborated containing activities and then a digital pedagogical game about this phenomenon. This proposal helps to differentiate the uses of verbs in the oral and written modalities and to promote reflection and understanding of the writing circumstances in which the /R/ should or should not be marked at the end of verb forms. Testing the applicability of the proposal is being carried out in classes of the final grades of elementary school with encouraging results. It is expected that it will help students to overcome the difficulties in writing these verbs.
