Since 2001, a perspective of grammar education as explicit knowledge of language has prevailed in the Portuguese L1 curriculum. From this perspective, inspired by proposals of the Anglo-Saxon movement of language awareness, the main goal of grammar education is to develop the implicit knowledge that children already have and use into an increasingly reflected and explicit knowledge. In this conception, which supposes that «most of data needed to teach grammar is in children’s heads» (Hudson 1992), discovery-learning approaches seem to be particularly adequate. Founded by Bruner and brought into grammar education by Hudson, this learning approach gives the student a central role and reflection upon language is stimulated through scientific reasoning. In this article, we will refer to a study on the comprehension of anaphoric pronouns in which a discovery-learning approach, the «grammar lab», was used with 20 students in grade 4. Proposed by Duarte (1992, 2008) after Hudson (1992) and sharing characteristics with other approaches (e.g., the «linguistic inquiry» by O’Neil and colleagues), the grammar lab allows students to use their intuitive knowledge and guides them to observe linguistic data, to test and validate hypotheses about language. In our study, which investigated relations between explicit knowledge and reading, students were guided to reflect upon different properties of anaphoric pronouns to develop strategies to identify antecedents of pronouns in a reading task.Centro de Linguística da UNL (CLUNL)RUNBatalha, Joana2023-02-01T22:19:28Z20222022-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article21application/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10362/148521eng0214-8188PURE: 52185207https://doi.org/10.7203/Caplletra.73.24639info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP)instname:FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiainstacron:RCAAP2024-05-22T18:08:45Zoai:run.unl.pt:10362/148521Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireinfo@rcaap.ptopendoar:https://opendoar.ac.uk/repository/71602025-05-28T17:39:25.300953Repositórios Científicos de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (RCAAP) - FCCN, serviços digitais da FCT – Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologiafalse
