Reading, Writing and Oral Tradition Workshop
Guided by memorable characters with unique stories and professions – like Rosa Lavadeira or Ilda Varina – all participants get acquainted with cries, fados, poems and songs in a very original way. From the oral tradition to the major Portuguese literature classics, including various authors and major works encompassed in the official educative curricula, duly adjusted to the different age groups and schooling levels. Using games and surprising and funny interactions, children are invited to join different creative writing activities, using rhymes and onomatopoeia, and producing texts of different kinds of genres and style, from different points of view, and using a new lexicon. Finally, participants will develop their expressive reading and declamation skills – both individually and in group - using various types of languages.
