Summary: | This article draws a methodological proposal for the English language
teaching in the public high schools under a communicative, interdisciplinary, interactive
and contextual approach. It begins with the theoretical base tracked by Chomsky (1996),
Hymes (1991) and hold by the law 9495/96 LDB ( Law of Guideness and Bases for
Education ). It portrays the difference between the terms learning and aquisition of a
foreign language, and expose the main difficulties that envolve the pedagogical practice of
English in Brazil and their possible causes for the obstructive resistence toward the second
language learning. This study points to a pilot methodological proposal well suceeded for
both teachers and students. This paper hints that exposition procedures of syntatic rules
can be changed by funny communicative contents and or belonging to the student’s day-today
reality which must exhalate, at first, those linguistic rules only inferentially developing
the linguistic hability by mean of pleasing, contextualized and interdisciplinary strategies.
This study ends granting some examples based on themes exctrated from day-to-day facts
iconized in the lexicon and in its semantic extension. This is a descriptive study with a
qualitative approach which has as main objective to generate favorable condictions for the
effective aquisition and global interpretative performance to bring intellectual and social
growth for students of English.
