Entre ser químico e alquimista das palavras: narrativas de ensino e aprendizagem da língua inglesa

Abstract

Through teaching and learning narratives, this work aims to discuss a linguistic education that prioritizes the social function of language in its political and pedagogical dimensions, as outlined by the Brazilian National Common Core Curriculum (BNCC). Inspired by the method of ethnographic surrealism and in dialogue with the works of Walter Benjamin, Frantz Fanon, and Paulo Freire, we tell stories and engage with topics related to the BNCC, anti-racist education, and English as a lingua franca. We recognize that the advances presented in the document should not be overestimated and that the potential to amplify these advancements depends on collective and strategic efforts. Keywords: narrative experience; English as a lingua franca; BNCC; anti-racist education
