The transition from elementary school to junior high is a process that requires special attention, since, in Brazil, the dropout and failure rates are higher in the first year than others in junior high. To research this phenomenon, we adapted the concept of affiliation, proposed by Coulon (2008) to investigate students in the transition to postsecondary education. In this paper we discuss and reflect upon the use of affiliation to investigate the transition to 6th grade. We utilized various approaches to collect data from regular students, during the second semester in 2019, and data analyses were based on content analysis. Affiliation is not enough to analyze the ethnomethods created by the students, but we complemented it with a new category that deals with relationships to have a wide perspective of the transition.

Keywords : PRIMARY EDUCATION; AFFILIATION; REPETITION; DROPOUT.
