Unidade Didática — Língua Inglesa

Apresentação

Caro(a) Acadêmico(a),
Com esta unidade didática muitos de vocês iniciarão os primeiros passos no estudo de uma língua es-
trangeira. Outros terão a oportunidade de revisar e consolidar o que já estudaram há algum tempo. Outros,
ainda, poderão não encontrar novidades no conteúdo a ser apresentado, pois já o dominam e terão, portanto,
tempo para refletir e auxiliar os demais colegas com os recursos utilizados nas aulas ministradas pelo pro-
fessor interativo. Seja como for, todos temos um objetivo comum: a comunicação em outro idioma. Como
temos um tempo delimitado (três anos apenas) para aprendermos a nos comunicar utilizando outra língua,
precisamos aproveitar o máximo possível todo o tempo disponível e todos os recursos interativos para alcan-
çarmos nosso objetivo comum. Espero que as dicas apresentadas durante o curso os auxiliem a se tornarem
alunos autônomos, interessados e estratégicos, e que tornem nosso tempo juntos, além de produtivo, agra-
dável e prazeroso.
Cordialmente,

Professora MSc. Márcia Cristina Rocha Figliolini


Professora MSc. Glauce Soares Casimiro

ne? Why isn’t anyone at home?
Mr. Adams usually works in Sydney, and then he’s at home in the evening. But this week he’s working
in Melbourne, so he isn’t at home. Mrs. Adams generally stays at home in the evening, but tonight she’s
visiting a friend. Peter usually does his homework after dinner, but at the moment he’s swimming at the
public pool. Isabel, his sister, mostly stays at home, but this evening she’s helping her friend Samantha.
They’re making a chocolate cake. Generally, no one uses the car in the evening, but Mrs. Adams is using
it tonight. The cat usually sleeps in the kitchen, but tonight it’s trying to catch a mouse in the neighbor’s
garden.

LABORATÓRIO DE PRÁTICAS
INTEGRADAS
Prezado(a) Acadêmico(a),
O Curso de Letras visa formar profissional inter-
culturalmente capacitado a atuar em todas as áreas
afins do mercado de trabalho, sendo capaz de lidar,
de modo crítico, com as linguagens, principalmente
a verbal, nos contextos oral e escrito, refletindo e
discutindo questões concernentes aos conhecimen-
tos lingüísticos e literários.
Para tanto, será oportunizado, além dos conhe-
cimentos estudados nos módulos específicos do
Curso, exercício reflexivo que se dará por meio do
Laboratório de Práticas Integradas, compreenden-
do os eixos:
a) teoria e prática: situação em que você de-
verá investigar uma realidade, fazendo uso de um
aporte teórico estudado;
b) interdisciplinaridade: instância propícia
em que você poderá relacionar conteúdos estuda-
dos em diferentes módulos ou unidades didáticas;
c) contextualização: oportunidade em que
você poderá relacionar os conhecimentos adquiri-
dos com o seu contexto, visando a melhoria de seu
meio social, a partir da atuação que você terá en-
quanto profissional.
Espera-se, com isso, que o Laboratório de Prá-
ticas Integradas contemple o exercício reflexivo de
teoria e prática, bem como conhecimentos multi-
disciplinares e vivências das rotinas ligadas à área de
Letras e das realidades de cada região.
