Abstract:
This article investigated different
didactic strategies, based on the four skills
– listening, speaking, reading and writing
–, that can contribute to the improvement
of the process of teaching and learning
the English language in Elementary
School. The research is characterized as a
descriptive, exploratory case study with a
qualitative approach. After administering
a pre-test, didactic strategies were
developed in the storytelling of the fairy
tale Snow White and the seven dwarfs.
After the strategies were developed, a
post-test was administered. The analysis
performed in the pre-test, post-test and
in the corpus, made up of the reports
produced in each class, evidenced that
different didactic strategies used in the
teaching of English can contribute to the
improvement not only of the students’
learning process, but also of the teaching
process.
