Abstract

This article presents a case study in which a didactic grammar sequence entitled Nom o verb? (Noun or verb?) was used. The sequence is based on the Egramint model and aims to introduce the notion of verb to a group of 3rd grade of Primary Education students by means of the contrast of noun phrases and sentences in order to promote metalinguistic reflection. In this paper, we present the didactic sequence and we offer preliminary results related to the teaching and learning of the notion of verb after implementing the didactic sequence in the classroom. These findings allow for some remarks to be made: attending to linguistic forms based on the complexity of their usage contributes to the improvement of language use; interlinguistic contrast affects grammatical conceptualization; students resort to the discursive situation to support their statements about grammatical notions and demand metalanguage to share their reflections.
