Description
Summary:In this article, the design of three teaching strategies is proposed to using in class. These strategies are applied to legends that belong to a corpus of traditional literature collected by the project “Reading and writing in Boyacá’s countryside”. The project suggests a teaching sequence composed by objectives, form of text presentation, thematic contents, activities, and evaluation criteria. To developing the sequence, it has made three ludic scenarios that gave value to different central aspects of legends as a literary genre: “the labyrinth of doors in the castle of crying”, “the research about the kidnap of a child”, and a kind of “local bestiary”. Before the application of each teaching strategy, the article observes the characteristics of the genre, and it is defined. Finally, it proposes the classification of legends to categorize the collected stories. This study contributes, previously, to an understanding of the thematic content of the three teaching strategies.
