INTRODUÇÃO
Educar hoje é mais difícil porque a nossa sociedade com todo o avanço
tecnológico existente, se tornou mais complexa (MORAN, 2004). No entanto faz
parte do nosso papel como educadores buscar o aprimoramento necessário para
que possamos atuar com eficiência frente a este novo desafio.
As DCEs de LEM (2006) propõem que as aulas de Língua Estrangeira,
representem um espaço de construção para o aluno, através do qual ele possa
reconhecer e compreender a diversidade lingüística e cultural existente. Além de
compreender que a língua como prática discursiva não é neutra. Tal proposta
apóia-se nas Teorias do Círculo de Bakhtin que propõe o ensino através dos
gêneros discursivos.
Devido ao reduzido espaço de tempo para a aplicabilidade do projeto na
escola, optamos por utilizar apenas o gênero discursivo música (clips), que
normalmente já faz parte da rotina diária da maioria dos estudantes, que gostam
de realizar diversas atividades ouvindo música, o que acaba resultando numa
empatia conjunta por este gênero, o que vem de encontro ao nosso principal
objetivo que é estimular o interesse dos alunos, do Curso de Formação de
Docentes, do Colégio Estadual Guilherme de Almeida-EFMN, pela aprendizagem
de LEM - inglês.
Ao elaborarmos o presente material levamos em conta ainda, a
necessidade de oferecer subsídios à prática pedagógica do professor de LEM
dentro da nova proposta, auxiliando-o não apenas na sua compreensão, mas
principalmente incentivando a utilização dos recursos tecnológicos existentes na
própria escola, uma vez que além de utilizar a TV Multimídia, o material oferece a
oportunidade para a utilização do Laboratório de Informática da Escola, para
acessar os clips selecionados , todos do site http://www.youtube.com .
Cabe ressaltar ainda, que a escolha do gênero discursivo música, foi devido
a sua relevante importância como forma de expressão cultural, que veicula valores
estéticos, ideológicos, morais, religiosos, lingüísticos, etc. Além disso, ao
trabalharmos com a música, através de “clips”, temos ainda a oportunidade de
explorar a riqueza imagética existente nos mesmos, além de podermos analisar a
relação de tal recurso visual com a letra da música, o que segundo as DCE/LEM ,
p.40), é muito importante no trabalho pedagógico, na medida que auxiliam os
alunos a interferir sobre o tema e sentidos dos textos.
Para a elaboração deste material utilizamos ainda como base teóricometodológica o Interacionismo Sócio-discursivo de Bronckart e Dolz Schneuwly,
que ancorou toda a estruturação das seqüências didáticas utilizadas.
Enfim , esperamos que este material consiga atingir todos os objetivos
didático-pedagógicos propostos, servindo de instrumento para a melhoria do
processo de Ensino -aprendizagem de LEM- Inglês .

THINKING ABOUT...
Toda música é um texto, e como tal não é isento de sentido. As músicas
transmitem mensagens e defendem pontos de vista. Elas são carregadas de
ideologias, traços pessoais, culturais e sociais de quem as produziu. Por esta razão
é interessante conhecermos não apenas as letras das músicas, mas todo contexto
de sua produção, além é claro, de compreender a mensagem que ela quer passar.

CURIOSITIES ABOUT A POP STAR’ S LIFE …!!!
Creating hits is not easy. In fact, only a part of a pop star’ s
job is singing or playing. Lots of time and efforts are spent
finding the right song, perfecting the final sound in the studio,
having new ideas…
Besides, you must think about promotion: jetting off on tour,
being interviewed on TV or radio programmes, shooting clips,
making people want to buy your CDs…
Being talented it isn’ t the guaranty of success.
However, there are compensations for this hard work! Many groups or sole singers
are successful and appear in magazines, on TV, posters, live shows, etc.
