elaborated by students in the fifth grade of Primary School. The content was developed through an
investigative activity using the representational multimodality in the text format, image, besides
dialogic interaction through oral way between students and the teacher. The meanings, produced in
each activity, were analysed based on the Meaningful Learning aspect. It was possible to verify that
the activities provided differentiation and enrichment of the initial meanings which were established
in the cognitive students’ structure. |
